Ucar,
I believe that we were both formerly captains and now are PFCs (Proud Ferkin' Civilians). On that alone, please don't address me as sir.
I wrote a long reply, rich in praise for you. Too rich. I'll simply say that you remain a huge resource for this board and I deeply admire your intellect. Tough issues lie ahead for Turkey. Your nation is fortunate to possess leaders of your talent.
