This is going to be an interesting blog - for me, anyway. Usually, I start out knowing pretty much what I intend to say and then it keeps morphing into the blog that ate Cleveland. Becuz I know SO MUCH STUFF! (Aren't you glad?) This time, however, I'm writing to find an answer, as in the classic psychotherapist trick, "Well, if you were able to answer the question, what would the answer be?" So, I'll assume that I have the answer - or a way to get there - or something - regarding "...

Recently posted to the KPFKchat.org newsgroup: We are about to be bombarded with pros and cons in this debate over the big union money grab.

I'm mirroring this, BTW, from the "Return to Reason" objectivist site, as I keep having the sad experience of losing files that I don't put in multiple locations...
