        Charles - a quick reading of this web-site reminds me of the posse
commitus as well as much of what Timothy McVeigh was writing/saying, as
well as the man dubbed the "unibomber" - can't remember his name just
now -

        i point this out _not_ as a criticism, but as an observation of how
perhaps the head of the reactionary is eating the tail of the radical /
the head of the radical is eating the tail of the reactionary.

        or perhaps i'm all confused.

The English noun "identity" comes, ultimately, from the
Latin adverb "identidem", which means "repeatedly."
The Latin has exactly the same rhythm as the English,
buh-BUM-buh-BUM - a simple iamb, repeated; and
"identidem" is, in fact, nothing more than a
reduplication of the word "idem", "the same":
"idem(et)idem". "Same(and) same". The same,
repeated. It is a word that does exactly what
it means.

Mendelsohn.
