This is getting a bit out of control.  I'm receiving hate-mail, email
letter-bombs (they go "BOOM!" when you read them :-) and I just found
a whole bunch of grapes shoved into the tailpipe of my car :-) :-)

I've already replied privately to Mr. Bedichek (I have a feeling that
that discussion is degenerating far too rapidly to keep it here in
this public newsgroup) so I just want to keep this very short;
apparently my last post did not make the point I was trying to make:

I never meant to imply that America invented the boycott.  I was
trying to say boycotts were not un-American (as the original poster
seemed to be stating, if somewhat obliquely).  Unfortunately I misused
the word "unique" so that it seemed I was trying to hoard all the
credit for boycotts for the USA.

I apologize if this offended anyone; I would have done so in the last
post if I had realized that simply explaining that I had misused a
word would not solve the problem.
