I enjoy reading the blog too whenever i get the time and dont see why you should worry as an educator at the university about where to draw the line , critcize all that you dont like or cant understand or what need to be changed , constructive critisim will make us better people as opposed to jealous individuals who curse and vent their hatred for arabs by calling us horrible names and using swear words on their blogs which is not accepted by itisalat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11985920.post-1122449029804370672005-07-27T11:23:00.000+04:002005-07-27T11:23:00.000+04:00I'd be careful what you write.

Just a word of advice. I enjoy reading your blog, and dont want you to make a small mistake that could cause you problems. Remember, you are always being watched. I suggest you tone down your post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
