Zim Zim, my husband and I are long-time investors in POET and long-time readers of Agoracom. We don't post in Agoracom, except for the odd private message, but I (and my husband) just had to publicly respond to your recent posts in this Off-Topic forum to thank you for your courage in sharing your substantial knowledge on what is really going on in this world with such eloquence and authority. I hope you don't mind, but I will be copy and pasting your words into my files, as they are so well-spoken, I wish to share them with others. If the world ever comes down to us 'dissenters' having to start a parallel society, I would definitely like to have you in mine!

Maggie
