    Nope. I'm another. What I *am*, is convinced that

    1) The truth, whatever it is, is a hell of a lot more complicated than any
    treatment given it by mass media of any leaning, or any speaker at a podium
    I heard this weekend.

    2) The "taking to the streets" this weekend in San Francisco was _chock_ full
    of people I saw making all sorts of strange political hay--wobblies weren't the
    half of it.
