Tyke, I didn't mean to imply that Ireland is a NATO member, just that that's how the Irish spell whiskey. I have a bottle of Crown Royal (Canadian "whisky") here and just now noted the lack of the "e." Presumably it's because Canada is part of the Commonwealth. But I take your point that anything American has little credibility right now, thanks to the s--- show. Perhaps just a matter of time before NATO kicks us out.
