Dear Declan,

Mary and I greatly enjoyed the recent Politech dinner in San 
Francisco.  Thanks again for organizing it.

In reference to our recent event with Gore Vidal and others, "Understanding 
America's Terrorist Crisis: What Should Be Done?" 
(http://www.independent.org/tii/forums/020418ipf2.html), Politech readers 
may find the following two pieces of interest:

"The New War on Freedom: Give me liberty, or give me . . . what? Security", 
by Gore Vidal:

"Amoral logic of 'collateral damage'", by Robert Higgs:

Best regards,

David
