Piper, maybe I shouldn't have voiced that particular complaint in this thread. I think you're the kind of individual who sees PAST media images to the real people.

I've just been having to see a lot of garbage tossed at my country--I don't know...I just don't like bad vibes. It's almost as though I can't shield myself against it like most people do.

BTW--on the capital of Brazil thing, at least I had the right country...I always assumed (wrongly) that it was Rio de Janeiro.

And thank you both for your permission.
