hi doug:  i didn't know you were a fan of the WTO steel import agreement, 
kerry dems and wild bill clinton.

i hope your note doesn't mean you're not going to take a look at "bush 
apologist" Joshua Frank's book *Left Out: How Liberals did Bush's Work for 
Him* when it's published by Common Courage Press next year?  i hear it's good.

there's a meaningful difference between a punch and a counterpunch.  since 
you find sports boring and have no idea what it is, you might ask a friend 
who understands boxing to explain it.
