    @Glenn and @Shooter

    Glenn,

    Thanks for the comment in reply. The chatter from the Bush administration is unequivocally a drum beat for war. Whether or not they'll sound the trumpet call of "Charge!" I don't know, and I look forward to the analysis in your book, which will no doubt help Us The People know what to expect, and perhaps what to do.

    Shooter,

    I would recommend this article to all.
