 >>  I was deeply involved with the defense of Nicaragua
 and El Salvador during the 1980s, but saw no evidence of SWP activity. You
can sell all the god-damned copies of the Transitional Program you want, but
if you can't put your body on the line, what good are you? <<Louis P

 Jon Flanders:

  I have to disagree with Lou here. My experience in the SWP during the
eighties saw tons of people going to Nicaragua on work brigades, tours, etc.
My wife was one of them. She and Fred Halstead bounced on a school bus up to a
village on the Honduran border at the beginning of the contra war.

  I know about his criticism of SWP work in NYC, where I was not present.
Well, Louis, expand if you want to, you've been over this before.

  I think you are getting a bit carried away.........can't help liking you
anyway, sorry bout that Malecki.
