24661 [lbo-talk] Sounds like Faulkner -- rank: 1000
Michael Simkin wrote: >Can you explain what was Faulkner's contribution to the literature? Lots of beautiful words and soee fascianting and extravagant characters. It's been 25 years since I read him though. But a guy who can throw around phrases like "all polymath love's androgynous advocate" has my vote. Doug

24662 [lbo-talk] Manufacturers Cheer Dollar's Decline... -- rank: 1000
Mike Ballard wrote: >Question for LOBsters........Is the decline in the >"value" of the dollar going to bolster the chances of >the Shrubsters in next year's election? Depends.

And why do you say this? "Peasants" in the "advanced" countries could object to "globalization" for all the wrong reasons. Is all that stuff from the 18th Brumaire obsolete? Doug

Bove makes a fragrant Roqeufort (there's a pic at <http://www.leftbusinessobserver.com/SeattleMonday.html>). I'd hate a world in which McD's squeezes out high-end cheese.

It's been a long time, but I loved Faulkner back in my literary days. And, even though it got ridiculous on occasion, I loved his prose style. What's your point here? Doug

I'm not sure I buy that. If the Calif electorate were really in some kind of proto-revolutionary mood, why didn't Camejo or Huffington attract more votes?
