I'm afraid not. Uncle JB spent most of his so-called adult life wearing Army green and collecting data on the bars and saloons of the Far East.

Been to Idaho a couple of times, though.

Your reference to getting drunk with Abbey caused me to think of Williamson, the paleo-con Senior Editor, Books, for "Chronicles." He also authors "The Hundredth Meridian" column which deals with the present and future of the West.

He's a great admirer of Abbey and they apparently were pals at one time. One of his columns a year or two ago was about a trip he made into the wilderness trying to find Abbey's grave on the anniversary of his passing. Williamson and his friends didn't find the gravesite but they had a rather drunken ceremony in Abbey's honor anyhow.

I agree with you that the eco-fascists who worship Abbey don't really know their man.
