Steven, what a surprise, you sound like a libertarian that believes in controlling what other Libertarians think libertarianism should be, quite an interesting contradiction pointed out to, first by Proudhon and later expounded on by Bakunin and Kropotkin. My definition of libertarianism is quite simplistic, maintaining the freedom of action and thoughts of the people. There is absolutely nothing in Browne and other recent writers that can further clarify this axiomatic statement, particularly when taken in conjunction with the adjunct corollary: "Freedon (Liberty) is recognition of necessity" . I am not going to get into a pissing match with you on this subject, because it will have to be either be apologetic that I am not as good a libertarian as you are, or on the other hand, I will will be wasting posts on posts proving to you that you are not as "Pure" a Libertarian as I am, or as a libertarian should be (VBG). Neither options are appealing to me. Zeev
