GUILT SALVE

Perhaps it is Linden's altruistic nature or possibly it is due to hearing of the smothering smog in a certain area in China that caused this idea to germinate. Hopefully, it will lead to an opportunity being made available to you, gentle reader, to address a pollution problem that is being ignored by so many who are less caring than us. Since we are in the early stages of planning this project, do not send financial assistance - yet, unless you are absolutely and terribly guilt ridden.

The ACTION PLAN to date, is to identify the worst polluters, on a country by country basis, from among those who have been exempted from taking any control action by the Kyoto Protocol. After identification and when funding becomes available, contacts will be established in these countries by the GUILT SALVE GROUP and seedlings will be sent to these working contacts for planting where appropriate.

FUND RAISING: Finding willing contributors is sometimes difficult. So, in this regard we will attempt to identify those with a history of giving - such as those who contributed to the Presidential campaigns of Biden, Dodd and/or Richardson. The resulting flood of money will enable us to influence Congress to identify those in the Department of Energy who were influential in providing millions of dollars to somewhat similar projects. Congress will then cause a significant portion of the salaries of those identified to be diverted to our funding need.

CONTROLS: Guilt Salve monies will be handled as a part of Linden's personal wealth. In return, Linden will promise to never have a new home constructed of a size greater that 5,000 square feet and, further, will agree to not go jetting all over the world more than four times per year.
When a few more organizational matters are resolved, we will have the kick-off announcement.

BUY ME?

“MIND OVER FATTER” written in 1983 as a contrast to a Jane Fonda book. She had a better publisher so sales languished. It, written in calligraphy, was the first to present the concept of vicarious exercise. “An approach to weight control and physical conditioning which provides solace for the sedentary – includes recipes and statistical political commentary.”

Author: Linden Swift. Available locally at Uncommon Corner in downtown Plainfield, IN or Secondhand Stories on Raceway road. Also online:

HELP WANTED

It appears that in the last general election there were no Republican candidates in 39 districts scattered across 15 states. These positions offer much more than just good pay. Some of these districts are listed below in State, District and general location sequence. Please help find a Republican candidate in these districts. Even if these districts can reasonably be considered “lost causes,” the effected taxpayers need to have a choice.

Pennsylvania 1 Philadelphia area
Pennsylvania 14 Pittsburgh area

Rhode Island 2 Warwick area

Texas 9 Houston area
Texas 16 El Paso
Texas 20 San Antonio
Texas 28 Laredo

Virginia 3 Newport News area

In recent ratings, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste considered 32 of the present officeholders (democrats) to be hostile, 6 unfriendly, and 1 lukewarm to taxpayers. The National Taxpayers Union granted a grade of “F” to 36 of this group while 3 of them rose to a “D”.

WHAT IF?

Surely you believe that the liberal dominated news media is very, very selective in what “news” they will print or report. Have you noticed the absence of reporting about the improved situation in Iraq? There are, of course, other examples but Linden will assume that you can think. WHAT IF, you complained to the lackluster “news” provider and, if satisfaction is not obtained you then call those who advertise in that medium? Your message could be something like: “ I am disappointed that you choose to advertise in or on …. Who will not report…. Perhaps this approach would pay dividends in the form of less biased news coverage.
