Wei,
    I want to thank you for keeping this debate entirely focused on your
thesis and resisting the temptation of allowing any other subject to
develop out of an embryonic stage and acting as interlocator of this show
with consistently obsequious remarks to everyone who posts.

   On democracy again Ghandi;  "Oh yes, that would be a very good idea."
You must have missed that one before.

    I wonder when you will come around to your ultimate question:

    "Are you now or have you ever been an admirer of Ezra Pound? I invite
you or any other member of this list to answer this question under oath to
tell the truth so help your democracy. And let's not take the "moc" out of
democracy and above all not the humor.

    Todays quote is from Mark Twain's "Huckleberry Finn".

    "Hain't we got all the fools in town on our side? And hain't that a big
enough majority in any town?"

    I invite you or any other man (or woman)of this list to show how this
sarcastic and
critical statement could be used by fascist (Confucian) propagandists to
undermine the democratic principals of majority rule.

    Onguards,

    CDM

P.s. In Canto LXXII Pound writes,


                                "I said: 'who are you'?
        'I am that Ezalino who didn't believe
                   the world was made by a jew,...'"

Can anyone tell me who Ezalino is?
