Hi Sasha,
I thought you referred to public demonstrations, performance art, protests, and
that sort of thing. Not much of that goes on in the 90s (unlike the 60s). Except
for the WTO stuff last year (last millennium), and some skirmishes in Chico,
California before that, I haven't heard of much along those lines.

You do inspire. I appreciate your work, and I enjoy your web site. Thank you.

Yep, mostly kids rave. Haven't gone to one myself. Kids don't like me much.
Good. Keeps 'em outta my way.

I experienced that first hand recently. A conservative neighbor said I
"insulted" him, and kicked me with his booted foot as hard as he could. I didn't
see it coming. Asked him why he did it, and all he just shouted "You don't know?
You don't know?" When I finally got him out of the house (yes he did it in my
house), I felt very relieved. He has never apologized, and I no longer
communicate with him.

You got that right. I think their power trip control freak behavior constitutes
mental illness.

You forgot the neo-socialist collectivist Borg hide-bound herd mentality elites
who think they can solve the world's problems by making everyone equal (except
for themselves, of course, who must direct everything).
