#1 Imagine the madcap hijinks that would ensue if someone drives up to the parking lot during the festivities in a Caterpillar D-9.

#9 For you pancake lovers out there who would like a lower-carb alternative, I would highly recommend buckwheat pancakes. That is, process buckwheat flour in a pancake mix, not crude buckwheat, or that stuff that tries to imitate whole wheat.

It is also gluten free, and buckwheat isn't even a grain, it's a berry. Cooks and tastes just like regular pancakes.

#10 Cooks and tastes just like regular (insert food)

Yep, tastes just like horse beef.
Nice girl, great personality, makes here own clothes and a fine cook.

#11 Gentlemen. In an entirely neutral stance I am disgusted with your words and behaviour. This young lady died for a cause she beleived in. How many of you can say the same?

You are a bunch of apathetic morons hiding behind your sticky keyboards. Very rarely is there any intelligent comment here. Small wonder we are in the shit we are in if you are examples of the 'good folks'.

It makes you look and feel like those humans you despise so much. Go have a shower or something.

#13 Fred is quite clever, but even he hasn't figured out how to connect the Web to the Great Beyond. So clearly, none of those posting have emulated the flat Miss Corrie, who chose to commmit suicide-by-large-machinery, thus proving all our mothers correct when they told us

(1)Choose your friends carefully and

(2)Don't play around construction equipment or you'll get hurt.

#15 "This young lady died for a cause she beleived in."

So did Adolf Hitler, for the same cause: killing Jews.

#16 she died a wasted death, and I'm glad she's gone. She was hateful, anti-american waste of oxygen, spreading her venom to others. Happy Trax?

#17 Trex: So you don't like buckwheat pancakes?

More to the point, Rachel Corrie was a fanatic, filled with rage and hate. No different in many ways from the crazy Lori Berenson, who joined the Shining Path down in Peru.

Her cause was not just, because it was less concerned with helping the Paleos to help themselves, then by supporting them in their war, much like the Arabs who give them money solely that they will fight and die in a proxy war.

The house she was defending had been used by snipers to shoot at civilians, not soldiers. And by saying so, it strips her of any semblance of fairness or reasonableness. She was helping snipers to shoot at women and children!

You do not HELP anyone by encouraging war.

What had she done in the name of peace? Did she try to change how they teach their children? Did she show how their leaders were corrupt and stealing money from their own people? Did she do anything to help the Paleos help themselves?

NO. She died trying to stop the Israelis from defending themselves against attack. She was a vile creature who supported terrorism against those she hated. Her idealism was no different than the idealism of Pol Pot, but perhaps not as intense.

She was a crazy woman who deserved to die, both for her hateful desires, and her willingness to inflict death and destruction on others.

Died? No. Wounded? Yes.

Now fuck off, you British Columbian git.

#19 Gee. You lot are pretty sad - at least as bad as the other lot. eg So brave too, insulting a dead girl.

"She was a crazy woman who deserved to die, both for her hateful desires, and her willingness to inflict death and destruction on others."

Amazingly hypocritical.

She thought she was saving the world but instead she was an unfortunate wee girl who got into something she knew nothing about.

Your alternative descriptions are self-aggrandising vitriolic BS.

I thought I shared some views with you guys (you know who you are). But hey, we all make mistakes eh.

#22 Nothing quite like a good finger-wagging bit of silly posturing from a "self-aggrandising" moral superior.

The Minimum RDA is one per lifetime. We're all covered, now. Thanx, asstard. Back under the mossy wee rock.

#23 Trex - you are correct. She should be honored with an award. I was thinking, perhaps a Darwin.
