Michael Moore's "Sicko" is hot internet news

[--Pete]

Hi,

Now, we should be more bothered about Moore than the politicians?

Yep. Because, ultimately, it is what people believe that determines what happens. More people are influenced by Moore than by politicians for the reasons I gave.

I thought the same thing about politics, naive mountain-dweller that I am:o

Around the turn of the sixteenth century, Niccolò wrote a fine explanation of what politics is really all about. I don't remember him mentioning 'truth' except to dismiss it as unneeded;)

Thanks, my written English lags behind my oral skills, oddly enough. Help is always appreciated:)

Your written English is fine. Indeed, it is much better than that of many of the people who were raised in the language.

For the record, I'm pretty sure I have more than two neurons, if that was a jab at me.

I don't doubt it at all. 'Twas not a jab at anyone, just a classification. And it was most certainly not aimed at you.
