I learned a lot from Warren Brookes. We may be the only people here who remember him.

I used to clip a lot of his columns, and ran across a folder full of them a few weeks ago. There is nobody like him now.

Chronicles became my staple. I still subscribe to it

I dropped it once I found all the columnists online for free...

There is one freeper with the tagline “Cthulhu, for when the lesser evil just isn’t enough”.

Now there is something I could subscribe to! I have always believed that "the lesser of two evils is still evil." Not that the lesser is not still the morally correct choice, but let's not go overboard in thinking that the lesser of two evils is good.

Dark days ahead, I fear, but you never know what history will bring - and how we can shape it.

“I used to clip a lot of his columns,”

I have his book “The Economy in Mind”, I’ll have to dig it out and savor it again.

There apparently was a collection of his writings published as “Unconventional Wisdoms”. I see it offered new at Amazon for a mere $148.00, or used for $1.99.

It’s a shame these two aren’t offered as eBooks now that they are out of print.
