ETP Activity 07/29/2011 # 1 --- A Quick Read Option for the article

Working to post Palimpsest of Bucky Activity
This is a sequel to Bucky's For Hire which shoiuld by brought up in my ETPSignature but the ability to edit that is one of many things screwed up on ETP.

My activity to post has been interrupted: Manny Cass's [e-mail mannycass@gmail.com]* posting off-topic to Palimpsest as I  am still far from completing the work to post is an annoyance; I also have a conversation with Sonny Clark who I'll be asking to comment on this Blog entry..

Here is quick read info for Palimpsest. [If you've no interest in ETP skip to another Section of the Blog.}
*It has a pitch that one might notify Manny of his persona non grata status by e-mail.
It reviews my concern about moderatr-ship and Rules. on ETP 

I am giving up on ETP. I am treated badly there

What Kind of Conservative Quiz

I know it is pretty outlandish of me to take this quiz.
Did it with motif that I tried to minimize the silliness/stupidity of proposed answers.
Result:

    

My Conservative Identity:

You are a Faith-Based Fighter, also known as a religious or social conservative. You believe in Judeo-Christian values, restoring God’s rightful place in the public square, and in showing all the unwashed and unsaved liberal sinners the path to salvation, or at least to the GOP.

I took "What Kind of Liberal Quiz"

Larry Beck brought it up on Facebook on 03/04/11.
Result:

    

My Liberal Identity

You are a    Working Class Warrior, also known as a blue-collar Democrat. You believe that the little guy is getting screwed by conservative greed-mongers and corporate criminals, and you’re not going to take it anymore.

Bucky's 911truth Commentary

I have this ETP link

Remembering Warren Goldstein, friend (chessplaying buddy for over 13 years) who died Thankgiving Day 2008

It is Thanksgiving Day 2010..
[I have called Judy Goldstein, Warren's widow and a friend, to tell her I am about this and will appreciate her review.
Also, I will ask Ann Ellis (my best friend) and Dan Spencer (aka "Danish Gambit'), long-standing chessplayer/Facebook friend to add comment to clarify the message about Warren.]
Two and 1/4 years ago our regime of playing chess for 2 1/2 hours on each of  two days per week ended.

Remembering:
Warren was a most affable, well-rounded person who managed all his doings well and had other interests: family; golf; pool
Warren was a chess player who:
(We played many 20-minute games. He was slightly stronger player -- I lost many hard-fought endgames)
Was always cheerful.
Often sang and whistled without being annoying: his manners were unique and different ...... very quaint, perhaps, to on-lookers.
Often defended against my attempts to induce the Scotch Gambit by playing Phildor's Defense.
Didn't engage in long post mortems.
Enjoyed the games properly.
