I have said the same things myself for years in virtually identical language and I thought I was the _only_ person to think this way, let alone have the balls (or clit) to say it publicly. I have said the same things Rakesh has said sentence for sentence, item for item, and we have an identical problem with a similar radio station right here. I am so tied up with work right now I lack the time to go over Rakesh's and Justin's posts point for point, but remind me to relate a relevant anecdote concerning a public confrontation between Paul Robeson Jr. and Amiri Baraka a few years back. Rakesh, go on telling it just like it is! Don't let silly people get you down or make you doubt your own reason. --- from list marxism-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- ------------------
