If by "act" you mean yell at people on SI, I don't find that very sufficient action- in fact I see it as counterproductive. What you do off SI is what counts more. Are you working with organizations that promote what you want? Are you sending money to the political centers that seem to be promoting the changes you want? Working with like minded people is what works- on SI, where you are confronting people who do not already agree with you, you need to use logic and you really need to resist the urge to overstate issues, or indulge in hyperbole. So that's how you save the nation. IMO

The questions I've asked were rhetorical- there is no need to answer them. Have a great day.

Lemme eventually told Curtis in June of 2003 that his report was finished and that he would be pleased with the results, as the story went 'all the way to the top'. Three weeks later he was found dead in a Georgia motel room, allegedly by suicide. Brad Friedman is the investigative reporter who has been exposing details of not only Curtis' case, but those of Lemme's suicide and the police case surrounding it, on his website bradblog.com ...>>
