I've read Ken Follett. Thanks Vlad..

I highly recommend “On Wings of Eagles,” Ken Follet’s real-life thriller recounting Ross Perot’s rescue of two of his EDS employees held hostage in Iran in 1979. True American commitment, bravery, and follow-through—recounted by a British master of his craft.

RossPerot died today at 89. Here are some of his musings.....

If you see a snake, just kill it - don't appoint a committee on snakes.

Inventories can be managed, but people must be led.

Failures are like skinned knees, painful but superficial.

My friend Ross Perot died in Dallas last night, a couple of weeks past his 89th birthday. A great man and a fun guy. I learned so much from him. RIP, buddy. RossPerot.

That’s a very nice post about Ross Perot.

Thank you.

The story of his life and achievements would inspire any red-blooded American patriot!

The rest?
Probably send them running for their safe space.
