Hey, that's a line in a poem by, "Ray O. Light, " so obscure only <BR>
inveterate readers of the classified ads on the old (NY) Guardian will <BR>
remember who he is. He shows up on a Canadian website Chris Doss should <BR>
peruse, Compass, if memory serves. Apologetics for Uncle Joe.<BR>
Carrol's point, I agree with. SF DSA has members that spent decades in <BR>
the CPUSA. Tim Wohlforth, Tim Sears and I marched with a bunch of CCDS'ers <BR>
recently.<BR>
My old friend from college, red-diaper baby Eric Kirk (who has a <BR>
relative in WWP, Hilda Roberts) said Nat Weinstein ex-SWP, now Socialist <BR>
Action (or Socialist Worker Org. I'm blanking on which right now, latter a <BR>
split from SA.) told him that a SWP meeting in the Bay Area in the early <BR>
60's was threatened by a bunch of thugs from the CPUSA waving icepicks.<BR>
