Agree that some libertarian philosophy does not appeal to me, at this time.

That means that there is time. There is hope. :-)

Disagree in that, after having read a number of articles and a couple of books by Mr. Williams, I found him to be a champion for American liberty more than a shill for the Libertarian party.

I can't imagine where you got the idea that anyone was suggesting that Dr. Williams has anything whatsoever to do with the Libertarian Party. I have no data on that. He describes himself as a libertarian and I agree with that based on everything I have observed about him.

My point was that detractors can be found for ANY individual or organization.

I agree but I'm not sure why you feel compelled to keep making a point that has nothing to do with anything I said. It's a mystery.

One more and I'll quit. Two guys and me, on a river bank early one morning, 'starved to death'. NOTHING left but 3 cans of pork and beans, cooking on a wood fire. I accidently stumble and kick a chunk of mud in the skillet of beans. You DO know what happened, don't you? Set the mud aside, friend. Embrace the beans.

You should have quit before you told this little story. You seem to have ingested some mud with your beans, it has muddied up your thinking. :-)

C'mon, Mr. J., you mean you didn't laugh at that 'bean' thing? Not even once? I've been laughing at myself all day. (Yes, I am easily entertained).

No, I don't think we have any disagreement. I read your post as a charge. I realize now that it was merely an observation. I beg your pardon. My only excuse is that it had been a very long day, it was late and I should have been in bed, not on-line. It's 1am and I'm very tired (or maybe it's that 'mud' thing again), so once again, I'm sorry that I misunderstood you, and thanks for straightening me out.
