Well written.  But please continue sharing valuable material, such
as this tidbit that you posted to hp3000-L a while ago:

I've just finished reading a very good treatise on the Federal Reserve,
"The Creature from Jekyll Island" by G. Edward Griffin.

There's a good story in there that I'll paraphrase here: There were some
ducks that visited a lake in the north country. The farmer liked the
ducks and so he fed them and provided shelters for them. They stopped
migrating. Then, the farmer died, and the entire duck population was
wiped out by the next hard winter.
