Doc,

An offer of dinner and conversation?  I'll bring the "wine of astonishment" promised in the Psalms to "those who have been shown hard things"...no pun intended, just a topical allusion.

Thus not only does democracy make every man forget his ancestors, but it hides his descendants and separates his contemporaries from him; it throws him back forever upon himself alone and threatens in the end to confine him entirely within the solitude of his own heart.   ...de Tocqueville

With you at the barricades,

Cass
