The FBI, CIA, NSA, and Valley Forge Council, BSA read the "New World Notes" weekly letter . . . plus maybe 50 other people . . . so shouldn't you? How's that for peer-group pressure reaching a new low? But seriously, if you'd care to receive a little extended commentary on the next "New World Notes(es)," just drop the producer a note. You can do it right here on this "Program Information" page. Just click on "Kenneth Dowst," above; then, at the next screen you see, click on "Contact Contributor." For real: we put the "letter" back in "newsletter." And if it's "news" you'd prefer, well, tell Beethoven you're Tschaikowsky and ask him to roll over. If that doesn't work, try democracynow.org. PS: the FBI, CIA, NSA, and BSA aren't actually on my mailing list, understand. They read & enjoy each weekly issue anyway! And no, that's not "Birmingham Small Arms," though you gotta admit that those Brits once produced better single-cylinder motorcycles than did any other part of the Military-Industrial Complex including Lockheed, Colt, Sikorsky, & Harley-Davidson/Buell!
