Terrell, My last may have inspired guilt, but your last inspires fear. After all, some righteous (is that why we call it the right wing?)groups are now attacking universities for their putative "liberal" bias, even though universities house economics departments and business schools, etc. that are far from "liberal" in the sense now so commonly used in political rhetoric. Clearly there is tremendous political diversity within universities. That diversity seems to bother many of the academy's detractors. Thus, I take your prediction seriously as a remote, but still real, possiblity. And don't for a minute think that the left coast is immune--just go visit the Crystal Cathedral in Orange County to take our measure. If you go, you don't have to fly into LAXXX; you can skip right over Gomorrah South by taking a direct flight to John Wayne International Airport. My problem, and you seem to share it so well that your are branded a kook, is that I just can't seem to take Twain's good advice and be an intellectual prude: "It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have three unspeakably precious things: freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either of them." So, when the thought police arrest me, let your guilt guide you into defending me pro bono. Unless they get you first. Gregg
