    Hal,

    Right, you are, of course.

    You can find the entire piece at:

    http://www.boondocksnet.com/twaintexts/concerningjews.html

    I only discovered it about a year ago. It's one of
    the most interesting pieces I've come across in years.
     Because it deals with--and actually offers an answer
    to--a question almost taboo in our time--casting light
    into pitch darkness--and because of Twain's rep as a
    wise-ass with a dim view of humanity and a
    correspondingly astute ethical sense.

    I'd be VERY INTERESTED to hear your impressions.

    Best, Jeff Davis
