An absolutely beaut quote, Lew!  Think I might open a bit of old William
now, in fact.  Lovely man that he was!

>In order to make a revolution you must first have revolutionaries. As
>William Morris wrote in 1890:
>
>"Our business, I repeat, is the making of socialists, i.e., convincing
>people that socialism is good for them and is possible. When we have 
>enough people of that way of thinking, *they* will find out what action
>is necessary for putting their principles into practice. Until we have 
>that mass of opinion, action for a general change that will benefit the
>whole people is *impossible*" (Where Are We Now?, original emphases).

And much blushing appreciation for this bit:

>On a separate issue, I notice that some cretin on another list has
>besmirched our beloved moderators. I for one would like to express my
>appreciation for their tact and good humour in moderating what has
>become a quietly successful list.

Good on you!
Rob.
