I can imagine what would happen on the Bookshare list if Roger began writing in
positive terms about a Marxist book. On the VR Stream list, when I was trying
to get help finding the Sputnik radio station, people were making comments
about how they wouldn't listen to the station because it's Russian propaganda
and you can't trust anything that Russians say. Of course, I'm listening to
Americans on that station like Brian Becker, a socialist from The Answer
Coalition, which is an anti-war organization and John Kariakou, who's been in
the CIA and was imprisoned for blowing the whistle on their torture program.
The guests on their program include max Blumenthal and people from Code Pink,
and other American leftists. But I didn't bother saying that. The mass media
accuses Russia of being Trump's right wing ally while, at the same time,
accusing it of sowing discontent with left wing propaganda. With those
accusations, you can't win.

Roger bashing? What a strange idea.
If I were to write down all of my glitches, and publish them, I would entitle
the book as Volume One, The Weird World of Carl Jarvis.
We called our dad the Absent Minded Professor. And that was before he reached
40.
It's all part of the fun of living.

I think I have been guilty of the same thing. Once I was trying to
send an article about Cuba to this list. To fill in the address of
this list I really only have to type the letter B and auto complete
fills in the rest. That particular time, though, just as I was typing
the letter B I started thinking about books. Without realizing it I
continued to type out the word book. Auto complete filled out the rest
of it and the article ended up on the Bookshare discussion list. I am
lucky it didn't start another torrent of Roger bashing.

I owe another $1,300 to South Shore Periodo, remember? You need to
pay the last installment.
