95. Reminiscent of "Angela's Ashes" and "'Tis" by Frank McCourt ... but that was an even

more drastic time in Ireland --

As we have passed into fascism here and realizing how many mentioned intentions

of trying to leave over two decades now, if you come anywhere close to thinking

that way for yourself or just trying to get your kids out -- you have a little

understanding of what Ireland went thru during the alleged "potato famine" in

having their children leave the country -- often never to see them again.

This was another situation of elite greed which so devasted Ireland!
