I could say I'm a fan of George Kennan, inspite of the fact that I didn't have a chance to read none of his books, just articles and excerpts, and ofcourse his "long telegram". This excellent man would (I hope will) turn 100 years if he's alive, and I just don't know if he is alive or not? I live across the ocean, I'm not even from Europe, but from Balkans, and I'm not even muslim or croat or albanian, but Serb. So news travel very, very slow from US to here :-) I wish you all health! capt Albala
