Also, Chris, it's nice to hear from you again and see you're on this list. I remember you asked some questions a while ago on my standpoint on various questions, as an andherent of Mao's line. My reply, on the Mao newsgroup, contained some things I hadn't written before. Since I'm corresponding and discussing rather often with one person in Detroit, Jay Miles of the Detroit Peru Support Committe, it interests me also that you apparenly live in the same area and, as that recent postings points to, are active in supporting workers' rights. The ideology of Trotsky, which you apparently support, I'm against. But I've been in united fronts here in Sweden with some advocates of that polititical line too, for workers' rights and against racism and fascism. Someone whose name I forgot but who's in that WoVo, Detroit, you mentioned and which I earlier stated a very negative opinion of in connection with its stand on the struggles in Congo/Zaire, likewise made a good impression on me by answering a worried query of mine concerning Jay some weks ago when he was inexplicably absent (hard disk crash) from the list. Already a whole small group of people then, in the Detroit area, whome I somehow know.
