Okay, I'll tell you about my bears. We had five visits of black bears this week. Twice yesterday, once with a smaller bear and around 7:00 last evening two big ones came by. So far none today. The black bears are almost as plentiful as deer now. Black bears don't bother me. They're actually timid, even if not at all fearful of people. I was chasing them away, but I think I'll just leave them alone. I like them, they're beautiful. Much more annoying are the birds, but I think the chicks might be gone now, seems like all the commotion stopped. I don't know whether to leave their nests alone or dismantle them, since they'll just rebuild them. These animals are so completely adapted to people. They even seem to like people, more than people like them anyway. Even more than people like people. You knew I'd throw that in, you Leftist you. Wait, no, I'm the Leftist ... What's a Leftist? Someone who looks at the big picture. Of bears. Yes, of bears. > [Original Message] > From: Robert Paul <rpaul@xxxxxxxx> > To: <lit-ideas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: 6/24/2006 3:51:21 PM > Subject: [lit-ideas] Re: Aren't you glad you no longer have a Hitler problem? > > Lawrence Helm wrote: > > > Very good Omar.
