Yes, we are! I think we should friend each other. :)
I am a student at Lane CC right now, and I met Amelia briefly at Japan Night at U of O last year! We exchanged LJs. You are in France! How very cool!
Hm, it may also help that many of my relatives speak Swiss German. Also in America WWII seems much farther away. I think despite my big words I may also have uncomfortable in that situation, with the nice girl from Germany. When I was on a train from Denmark to Switzerland the train stopped briefly at night in Germany, and hearing the officials speak in loud German outside our train window set us a bit on edge.
Sometimes when I need hope for humanity I look towards Denmark's actions during WWII.
I think people are starting to realize that Bush really is willing to do something drastically stupid, and that people are starting to make changes. I just hope that we will be fast enough!
