Well thank you for putting it together, some excellent work.
I have recommended the Volume to the list on several
occasions. I think the current V.V. discussions could
include any and all of the essays in the Review. I would
prefer to be reading M&D or even VL with the group just now,
what with the Nation legalese(ing) its representative
democracy in the Media, and of course your Review would be a
big plus to such discussions. However, but to take one
example, your own essay, the quest and originalism can be
discussed here within this V.V.. I mentioned Joe Boulter's
essay here recently, and Bentons and Reilly's. My favorite
essay is Spencer's "The 'Law' of Simulated War in Gravity's
Rainbow."

Thanks again, 

Terrance
