- Well, I think I'll jump on you anyway. Although the 1 amendment is unique
- to the US, that is in name only. Most European countries also have
- 'freedom of speech' guaranteed in their constitution or law. So, just to
- clear up my point : The US is NOT the only country where you have the
- freedom to speak your mind without political/government cencorship. I
- hope this don't come as too big a shock for some US-Types.

- and now, back to the show...
