willy mate, re: lest we forget. Now I\'m no warmonger (apart from supporting the only war, the class war! and maybe the odd personal outbreak of hostilities over spilt beer and short weights etc.) I happened to find myself in the new garage off wessington way to refuel the car and me lungs. I was waiting in line listening to Metro radio when they announced it was time for the silence, 11th hour, 11th day, 11th month over the speakers. A few people looked a bit confused until the lass behind the counter said \"Haway Man, there\'s people waiting\" and the line started moving. And in that line of ten people I saw sales reps, van drivers, boy racers, middle aged mums (not my mum of course) bouncers, and councillors (copyrighted for later use) et al all shuffle on to get their Cream eggs and bonus points. Why did this happen?
We have been taught to forget! At this very moment in time we are going to be expected to forget something that happened about three blinks of an eyelid away. War with Iraq. Our kids know practically nothing of the 2nd World War and NOTHING of the first! WHY? Cos it\'s not nice and doesn\'t fit in.
