Joshua, What does your remark about the "Letters of mark" and Legalized piracy mean? Incidently, is English your first language? I thought someone would attempt to draw a parallel between the crimes in Nazi Germany and the slavery issue in America when I read the earlier post. There is at least one important distinction . . . CSX had no control over what happened back then but the German government did. Many individuals in the German government were held accountable for their actions as defined by a worldwide standard. In case anyone wants to discuss a worldwide standard being applied to the CSX case (which I personally would not care for), it is my understanding that slaves have been a part of every significant society at one time or another. Every corporation in every country would in turn be sued by one group after another and only the lawyers get rich. A friend of mine told me once that slaves were abandoned in England only a few decades before they were abandoned in the U.S. I would be surprised if none of my ancestors were slaves at one point or another. I see no basis for any such claim being made today and I loath the lawyers using this pathetic excuse to generate rewards for themselves at the expense of hard working individuals who make CSX a fine transportation company in the U.S. Ed
