Black and White Brian, I don't know if that means your part of eact BUT I don't give a hoot. I just totally agree with you. I always look forward to Dr Sowells articles. I just finshed his book "A Man Of Letters" less that a week ago. Excellent!!. I love Doctor Sowell to, LIke a brother of course as he's too young to be my father. :0) He wasn't quite 10 yrs old when I was born. And by the way, I'm an old white woman, if that matters. I didn't think it would. (smile)

Hey Fredric, I just finshed Dr Sowell's book "A Man of Letters" . In the book "On a scale of one to ten, he gives his secretary Agnes an eleven. I grade Dr Sowell the same way. Well, I might even give him a 12. :0) I can't imagine how difficult it has been for him, at times, to stand up for conservatism. He has my utmost respect. THANK YOU!! for standing up for him.
