Dear Editor: In response to Mrs. Gable:

Quote -<a href=www.vheadline.com>The point is, that today's task is not to point fingers at the past, but to learn from it ... and move forward ... developing alternatives that may include the best of both paradigms. But, more likely, it will be found in a completely new one.-Unquote

That’s seems to be the problem Mrs. Gable...

Notwithstanding learning and creativity we are always asked to place our future in the hands of the whimsical fancies of the next “lider maximo”... to march under the “other world is possible” banner ... led astray like lemmings to the “sea of happiness”... for the joy and glory of armchair social experimenters.

Don’t you think it is utterly irresponsible to throw an entire nation down the road of untested and uncertain alternatives-yet-to-be-developed?

To plow forward on new experiments and new social structures?

Weren't they exactly the recipes of Chairman Mao and Comrade Brother Pol?

I think you are displaying a certain naivete about the subject ... do you agree?
