31. It's okay, Jim4Wes, we can leave it.
I understand your frustration, some "theorists" jump the gun into irrationality far too easily. However, I find that methodology varies quite a bit from person to person, and one can be very sane and build a pretty accurate record over time. At one time Iran-contra was considered a whacko theory, but evidence built up over a few years.

This does not mean the Illuminati is involved. :)


Sure we can part in peace, no prob.
I read a few articles on your website- you have a nice way with words.
i agreed with much of it, and consider Clark to be a necessary part of rebuilding the country after the Bush mess.
Here's hoping!

cheers :hi:
