BE -- "death wish for the planet" why the internet?

[Thomas Eckhardt]

Ernie actually makes the connection between the JFK assassination and 9/11:

"'Same thing happened when JFK' was shot,' Ernie belatedly trying to 
defuse things with geezer nostalgia. "Nobody wanted to believe that 
official story either. So suddenly there were all these strange 
coincidences.'" (BE, 325)

Love the "geezer nostalgia" -- remembering the good old times when the 
President's brains were blown out.
