  Brian S says that Paul and I should clam up on politics. That's fine with me. Discussing Nietzsche is more interesting than evaluating armchair geopolitics; at least with Fred's writing, we have an immediate laboratory of the possible -- our own being. With politics, the only ones convinced were already convinced.

  So if Paul ceases to use the List as a forum for pretending that he understands the entire world, I will cease to use the List as a forum for pretending I understand the entire world.

  That would leave Kevin to urge everyone to take off their clothes and live Ferlinghetti's Junkman's Obligato with what Bruce Lee used to call "real emotional content."

  Olive branches anyone?
