> Adam, just a thought....I'm amazed at how po-faced those people
objecting to your correspondence sound...if you're smug (and I don't
think your comment about sandwiches without bread was smug at all), then
you can send 'po-faced' back over the net like an Agassi return to
feet....! And I've just said that to everyone's 'virtual
face'......not to be quarrelsome, but to say, 'come on, guys!' (McCain
was a good loser, wasn't he?.....and isn't the traditional complaint
against 'economics' that it emphasizes one-dimensional rationality
against wider motivations and emotions....
if my deliberate stream of consciousness about neo-cons, Afghanistan and
the USSR didn;t help you, sorry! (not!)
keep up the good work, Adam
