What a job, what a job you have done for us here, I applaud
you, I stand and rattle my jewelry. 

Well, I do, I'm sure we all do appreciate your pushing the
stone here. "One must imagine Sisyphus happy." Almost typed
syphilis (Ibsen and Pynchon?), well Job and Satan and Skin
disease. Damn English spelling, Sisyphus, prometheus, why
can't we all spell like Greeks? Mafia, ha, ha.   He was a
highwayman you know. Like that chap that robs from the rich
and gives to the poor, Robin in the hood, but who wants
Lupins in these days of Tulipomania (Mackay). You know,
Standard Oil was involved in that Suez deal, they did the
studies and advised the government, so was JFK.  They or the
Rockefellers did NOT own half of IG Farben, as that
ridiculous essay on my Mayor claimed. Ridiculous not because
I like the man, I do not, I can't wait for him to be gone,
but this is a bad trick, this  nonsense of calling people
Hitler-like. It's not serving any good as far I'm concerned,
it's no better than the NY Times silence. Although I should
also mention that the English and French did think of Nasser
as a resurrected Mussolini, even a nascent Hitler. The
failure of governments to respond in a timely fashion in the
1930s, 1956 being the twentieth anniversary of Hitler's
remilitarization of the Rhineland, in violation of treaties.
Eden, Macmillan, Guy Mollet, this is what they were thinking
