The best thing about President H. Clinton
is that only a Democrat will get any cooperation from the rest of the
world.

I haven't checked lately, but I think Hillary skews more negative with
most voters than even Bush did at his lowest point.

It seems you either love her or hate her.

So enjoy your flying while it is still possible (ie we have both the
healthy economy and freedom of action necessary to support it). It is
only in the Anglosphere that private pilots like me can fly at will
(without being stinking rich). I hope this state of affairs will last a
few more years yet, but eventually our enemies will set off some nukes
and put the world into a severe depression.

This is why I'm surprised that we've done nothing -- this is a "clear
and present danger" and should be dealt with in some way.

It's why I'm even MORE surprised that China has done nothing. An apt
parallel would be for us to imagine a nuclear-armed Cuba or Mexico --
and I can't imagine we would sit still for that now any more than we
did in 1962.

I wonder what China is *really* doing right now?
