Hi Allan,

I find your info helpful though it is somewhat ironic that we could all make some money from avian flu before it kills us...

I also resonate with your cop bully story, as my son was driving near your old haunt, Brookline, a place known for police excesses, when stopped by several cops for DWS. That's "Driving while Successful" as a 20-something and stopped by low class angry cops. Asked where he worked, how could he afford the sports car he was driving, what's in the car, he barely controlled himself while undergoing several minutes of essentially illegal and unwarranted harassment before being ticketed for a nonexistent speeding offense. Showing up in court to contest the charge, he found the cops absent but was asked by the judge to return for another court appearance to confront the two cops who charged him. He's going as a matter of principle despite expecting no justice. For the record, he is not a person of color. They are ALWAYS stopped for DWB.

Wasn't it Oliver Wendell Holmes who said that he thought the worst fate that could befall a U.S. citizen was to be a defendant in an American court room? And that's just for a bogus traffic stop.

Keep the faith.
