Paul Hellyer - Extremely thought-provoking and highly intelligent. If you're Concerned About the Fate of Our Country and The Word, check out his website!

NOTE: The main title should have read: ...and The World, .... had a minor brain cramp on that.

I encourage any and all who are interested to check out this man's website. I heard a radio interview with him on 8-4-2010 and even though he's now 87 years in maturity, he is extremely lucid and intelligent. He doesn't pull any punches and calls it like it is and how it should be.

I belong to several Windows 7 websites, I'm a VIP on two of them and a Moderator on another obscure website. A moderator here is very familiar with what I'm capable of, that being bassfisher6522 as he knows me from another forum we're both members of. He has been an invisible supporter of me and encouraged me to become an active member here of this forum.
