Scientific American claimed that the Wright brothers' airplane invention would not work three years after it already did.

Then, later, the Communist Piel (his wife was head of the Communist Emergency Civil Librties Union) took over Scientific [Un]American in the 40s I believe.

Gawd! I am sick of this kind of crap. Look, if I'm walking down a dark street and here comes a couple of guys with their baggy pants down below their asses, hats on backwards and walking like Richard Pryor when he said "we bad"-- and then here comes a guy with a suit and tie, shined shoes and a brief case---now which one is gonna cause me some concern??? Huh? And I didn't say anything about race, did I?

I'm rejecting all this race crapola and doing it very forcefully. I am trying to teach my kids and grandkids to do the same. I say "Look for values. Don't worry about a person's race. And don't you EVER fall for this baloney about one set of values not being better than another one. Don't cut slack to a slacker just because your little teacher seems to think that is the way to go."
