You're welcome, Joseph! But you did hear about Treister from Werner 
Presber when he introduced the Tesla-card (King of Wands) here several 
weeks ago:

Myself I hadn't heard of Suzanne Treister, too.

So thank you, Werner!

I Don't admire any of these killers for a better world. I don't really mind monkey-wrenching, so I guess I'm a Luddite fan if not an actual Luddite, but Kaczynski's bombs were as hit and miss as the CIA.

Absolutely. Just wanted to reintroduce the man because for him it never 
was "a matter of personal taste" yet a question of necessity which he, 
in terms of practice, answered completely wrong.
