Tremendous analysis, many thanks.

Keeping up the family tradition? All wars are banker wars including wars within the country.

We are in the biblical end times, Gary. Apparently, the Bible is mostly a history book, written, it seems, at the back end of things. Our sense of the logic of our world, which most of us once felt, has now vaporized, and all we have left is books of mythology (or history?) to explain it all. I sense a lot of panic and doom-saying (more than usual, frankly) in your words. Yes, it would be nice if we could somehow roll back the tide even 10 years, to a time when the logical and moral explanations for events seemed plausible. The frustration is that the punching bag we now face is made of jello and all we get when we punch is egg on our face (how about that for a mixed metaphor, specially written for our upside down inside out times) . I do appreciate you very much and have for all of the last 5 or 6 years since this madness set in. Please consider my commentary as only my own personal way of hashing out the insanity. There is comfort to be found when another fellow soul (or two) remain(s) standing and alert (and extraordinarily articulate -- you in particular) as the light fades away. Will any remember that intelligent people once walked this earth? I suppose our successors will have to consult the sequel to the "Good Book."
