Oh yeah. Guess I'll have to walk over to Hy-Vee and see if they have a copy of today's Times.
This article tried to explain anarchists but I still have some problems with it.
I'm not sure if this is my second or third appearance in the Times. I think I may have been quoted back when the anti-globalization protests were hot. My first appearance in the Times was an uncredited quote back in the 1990s about the Unabomber investigation which at that point was fumbling along.
