CAVEAT LECTOR!
The many stories that Undercurrents told will interest students of a period that is both too distantand too recent to be adequately documented on the Web. The moral, philosophical, social,economic and political opinions herein remain, in my opinion, pertinent to the much more severeproblems we now face.Readers who wish correspond on any matters arising are invited to contact me via:
