I'm only a fourth of the way through so don't feel bad.
And don't disconnect yet. I got a hot lead from a big union man a couple 
weeks ago at a conference in sunny San Diego. We got to drinking and 
flirting and talking at the party afterwards, and I was telling him 
about AtD, encouraging him to read it, what with the big union theme and 
all. It kinda went over his head--"pinchin' who? huh?" so I dropped it.
"Nevermind. It's a good read. is all. Let's have another drink."
Then we go to talking about the Patriot Act and he says this: "You 
/should /be afraid. It's illegal to be an American! And if you stick 
with us [the union] they'll call you an Anarchist!"
I thumped his chest, "No way! That's what he calls them in the book!"
I was too spooked (not to mention drunk) to get the full story, but 
we're gonna be having drinks again, so I'll get names and dates  :  )

Merry Christmas, Dave!
