Jay, my reaction to seeing the link and 'feet of clay' is "Oh no, here are the doomsday cultists peddling their wares like Mormons hunting door to door for converts". I just know it's going to be the same old parsing his comments of half a decade ago for some hint of something to exculpate the mindless zombies of their sins.

Okay, I'll wade through it and see if there's a hint of something sensible. I just know I'm going to be disappointed. After this, I might simply have to declare all anti-Green$pan people as MZs and pull out the machine gun as soon as they poke their head above the parapet.

It's late, I've been driving all day [albeit as a passenger] and I need zizzo [sleep].

Sure enough ... more of the same

Jay, it was a repeat. Journalists live by plagiarism! Same old stuff. The same few sentences.

The Mindless Zombies didn't have a choice according to that. Could the people who claim to be mindless zombies in thrall to Uncle Al KBE please identify themselves. Jay, do you wish to volunteer?

Jay, I read it and was disappointed at the typical journalistic replay of old ground. Rehashing seems to be a profitable way to ply the trade. Thanks anyway. There were a couple of new angles on the old theme that the people who paid extorquerationate prices were not in charge of their minds - it was Uncle Al who made them do it.

But the Mindless Zombies are marching around the world. Here they are in Japan apparently: <...The moral hazard of Japan’s "convoy system" emerges once again very much intact -- banks remain too big to fail, as do their zombie-like corporate borrowers>... contd... >
