This sounds like good news.

@ornery:

Yes, I do see the historical parallels . . . and it is frightening. So many "Neville Chamberlains", as well . . . .

As for the all-time relay . . .I'm ready! Bring on Usain Bolt and crew--we'll smash them!!!

Regarding all-time volleyball team: you might want to add Snork in spiking and Duane Miller in the setting position.

@ ornery:

That quote by Jackson, depicted in the movie Gods and Generals (I think) or in Gettysburg, continues to move me. Didn't know you and I shared a love of history and a fascination with the Civil War . . .!

@ ornery: not only shall we "press the thing", but those not holding a leg can participate in the skinning!! (MSB version: "flaying, drawing and quartering!")

@ ornery:

I'm continually amazed at Lincoln's rhetorical skills in an age in which speech-writers were not used. He had such a way about him: pithy, direct, to the point, (or evasive via a well-turned story when it suited him or his purpose). He's always been my political hero, as well as the type of "advogado", I aspire to be.

have you finished e-mailing all tribers?

can you give us a percentage of people who have answered? and a percentage who would like to see further investigation, transparency, etc?

OT,

Thanks for your entertaining and hard hitting work. A little humor is needed for the weary for sure. Keep up the pressure. You are correct that we must all be in this effort for the long haul. "Relentless pursuit of the truth" (RL). At some point, I am convinced, that the dam will begin cracking. Even now, more and more leaks are appearing in the monolith.
