[This bounced becuase it had an attachment. I've asked majordomo to bounce attachments because some people can't handle them and because they can spread viruses.

To: freepacifica at penguin.josephson.com From: Max Schmid <mschmid at interport.net> Subject: WHERE IS KPFA??? IS IT HAPPENING??? Mime-Version: 1.0 I tuned in to the KPFA news feed at around 9:05 to hear (live/ tape?) of Dennis Bernstein being removed from studio after playing tape of yesterday's news conference. The commentator said that he had been put on "Administrative Leave" a half-hour ago. Much confusion, followed by dead air. Now a taped speech about Marxism has been ...

38934 culture & poverty, again -- rank: 1000
Wall Street Journal - July 13, 1999 THE CULTURAL ROOTS OF POVERTY By Lawrence E. Harrison, a senior fellow at Harvard University's Academy for International and Area Studies. His most recent book is "The Pan-American Dream" (Basic Books, 1996).

From 1929-33, it fell 27%. If the first set of recessions are ...
