Peter, Paul and Mary sang a song, "When will they ever learn?" There are many in our land who can't accept either reality or the truth. The very same universe outrightly rejects profiling. To call them, and there are so many, hopeless, is too negative for me; I'll continue to try the persuasion route, even as my brother accuses me of spouting right-wing screed. How I love that word which doesn't even approach my logical approach to everything. I am the first to acknowledge wrong and acknowledge better ideas than my own. Quite the opposite of the group you describe who refuse to believe the truth.

The relentless barrage of lies and denial is particularly painful coming from my brother and sister in law, both eminent professers at Stanford.

Keep up the good work and perhaps we can get you confirmed in spite of the opposition by the supporters of the enemy.
