You're welcome. Thank you for all the good work you do bringing clarity about privacy and information security to many people. Let the beats go on. The crypto beats, of course.

Thank you so much for pioneering the use of “cruelites,” Jim, and the Chris Hedges epigraph is perfect for this topic!

Regarding pronunciation, I intended it to rhyme with “elites” and do need to clarify that in the definition, but your rhyming with Manhattanites is clever and works, too :-)

Thank you for your kind words and for reading my stuff. Some of the worst cruelites that I have encountered lived and worked in Manhattan. There are some things really wrong with that place in my direct personal experiences of it.

God bless you and your family. Amen.

1. Rudy Rummel's book is a neo-classic and should be on the bookshelf of anyone building a political library.

2. What I don't understand is the statement: "The physics of our day require the involvement of many more than 4 dimensions (length, width, heighth, and time as we understand it) to get the mathematics to work."

What math? I hope you don't mean string theory from physics, a multi-decade diversion of physics to metaphysics. (Eric Weinstein talks about this at 1:28:53, Explaining How Good Albert Einstein Was, at . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJxBnSyH0T4&t=341s).
