My sympathies; Nam was well before my time (although my father
was drafted). I think I understand where you're coming from though.

My sediments exactly.... although there are several others on this
list whose research and opinions I tend to hold in high regards as
well. I'm also hoping that the proposed NY event gets off the
ground, so that I can hear him lecture in person, and perhaps even
be able to meet him (and some other subscribers) briefly. All the
conferences I've been interested in this year have, as usual, gone
down on the West coast.

Especially that conspirator faction of the 'company' with ties to
the Boodle Boys; whose families and associates have been heavily
involved in the drug trade since the decline of East India Company,
and the rise of the American clipper ship.

Yet, as Gavin recently argued, those who don't trust 'gubbnmint'
bureaucraps, or believe much of the crap the newfakers pawn
off as 'news', are still a small, irrelevant minority; that tens of
millions in America blindly believe that Clintoon, et al., are
"pretty cool dudes" and they wouldn't mind "tipping back a few
beers" with them. Unfortunately I'd have to say that I tend to
agree with his observation.

I did 3 months on Parris Island myself, and 6 years in the USMCR;
although the following web page of a friend of mine sums up my
current disposition towards military service:
