Well said. For some reason a distant bell rang here. I went back to Wikipedia and put in the name Jack London. A California man, born circa 1876. died 1916. Now he was a journalist and author. Sure he was socialistic and angry at the system, but then had reason to be.
Society kinder to weaker souls today in many ways. He went up to Alaska and actually took part in the gold rush. This you will probably know. The incredible adventures of this journalist, running 'em (gold miners) up the river in a hand built raft to the start of the trail, is something!. His books "Call of the Wild" and "White Fang" are epics.
Well please excuse the off topic post but...... Dammit, that kind of man did it and then wrote about it.

I did not know he was a journalist as well and am glad to know this. Nor did I know ( or I have forgotten ) that he took actual part in a gold rush.
That takes great steel and I will be careful not to link all socialists ( using the cover title liberal ) into the same cesspool from now on (I mean, I will try-hee hee).
Nice side work, thanks.
