re: #370 Guanxi88

Well, I mean, they ARE minority groups, so it’s possible there just aren’t as many of them as my easy, back-of-the-envelope proposals would suggest.

I had a very good Coptic friend who was HEAVILY courted for some sort of job he couldn’t tell me about, but for which he needed substantial reference information and in connection with which I had a long sit-down with some very nice gentlemen from J. Edgar’s Office, followed by some young chaps who coulda been Wild Bill Donovan’s grandkids.

Guy was Coptic, US Citizen (naturalized), and held a JD (or the Egyptian equivalent) in Islamic Jurisprudence from Cairo University, and spoke with the slightest Houston drawl.

Well thats a good thing to see. Glad to see proper security is being handled as well, at least some of the time.
