"If you mean that the framers expected promoting the general welfare to be free, then I think they would have have used a verb like "hope" or "wish" They had big vocabularies back then, and don't seem to . . ." more

"It's currently defined in great detail. You only need one parent to be an American, and if you're born on US soil you don't need either of 'em. So unless the Georgia guy had an official Kenyan birth certificate . . ." more

Hi Jim. Thanks for the ping. It's good to hear from you. I have been doing ok. So is my family. I am currently living in Toyota-shi, Aichi-ken. I'm leading a pretty busy life here now.

Thanks for "befriending" me! And after three decades, you probably know more than you think...

Thanks for the ping and for the clarification! One of these days we'll have to try to translate Dad's military ID card since it's probably pretty worn by now. My brother had a pen pal in Japan once but stopped writing after we kept asking him dumb questions like "What does Toyota mean? Honda?" etc. More recently I wrote to a guy named Mike Rogers whom I think is (or was) a DJ in Tokyo. He used to write for LewRockwell.com but he got beat up (mugged) once so I don't know what happened to him. I find all aspects of Asian culture incredibly fascinating and there is always more to learn -- especially in the fields of alternative medicine and nutrition. Have a great week and see you on Gather!

Jim,

The information would still be useful at the www.nopom.info site.

It would also be useful to me to put up on Gather on my profile page somehow.

Jim,

I am trying hard to make it appropriate. If I can get my solution adopted anywhere in the world it will be as good as rebuilding the Empire. (Which failed, of course, because of the nature of its money. :-) )

Can you send a message to the www.nopom.info site telling how you were able to download the text for easy viewing? I think others could benefit from your experience.

Thanks.

Jim,

Yes, that 2110 is a typo. I am confident that it is not the only one. :-)

I try not to worry too much about them I figured it was better to get an imperfect copy of the book out there than to wait since we really need the solution ASAP.

Alright, Here's a wrench and some lube. We'll get that button fixed again.
