Hot tip Wednesday: don't miss Farouk El-Baz . The charismatic genius, head of the Boston U Center for Remote Sensing, speaks at 7 at Trinity's Chapman Center on the Gulf War's devastating environmental impact.
Expect a fascinating evening.
Tuesday, El-Baz addressed the Free Trade Alliance S.A. on a wide range of international themes, from women's role in the Middle East ("They run the show. . . . Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia is b---s--- "); to impressing foreign clients ("You can say your technology came from the U.S. space program - nearly everything does").
El-Baz deplored U.S. businessmen who approach foreign clients with "the attitude that 'we're fabulous and yesterday these guys had no shoes.' They come back empty-handed every time," he said.
He dropped a bombshell on the subject of Islamic fundamentalism, naming 31-year-old Yemeni multibillionaire Osama bin Laden as the sponsor of most fundamentalist violence, including the World Trade Center bombing.

and reconmike....although you've done nothing to refute the reports....all from credible news media sources.....the largest circulation newspaper in Australia, and the NY Times and Washington Post...besides your sarcastic response, I'll look into the reports on Eugene Anderson. I've never heard of him, but I'll share whatever I can find.
I have a personal need to know what I'm talking about. Even though I make a great effort to always be personally satisfied that I do....before I post, I still take a lot of heat and taunts from folks who seem to have a lower threshhold
of acceptance of what they publicly admit about what it is that they are, SURE OF.....
When the opinions of my critics here, are too often "in synch" with reports originating from a now totally discredited U.S. administration.....as if the process of the disintegration of the administration's credibility, and it's leaders public approval rating is not taking place, for years now, before our very eyes, I redouble my efforts to know what the f*ck I'm talking about.
Comments to the effect of "what is wrong with you, host", the administration says al-Zarqawi....or Gitmo....or Haditha....or Abu Ghraib....or bin Laden....why do you hate them....or question them.....<b>that are backed by nothing more than spin from that same U.S. administration</b>....can't cut it here, anymore....if this forum is still to be located in a rational part of the rest of the world. Please stop repeating what the administration tells you....and post what you think, and point us to independent information that backs what you believe. Like..... Senate Judiciary Committee Chair, Arlen Specter does,
in his letter of protest to his V.P., Dick Cheney:
