Where can I learn the most about Winston Churchill and enjoy the experience? <<I love to talk to guys like you about programming, and ..... about wars & economy. I feel that you can never know enough about this world. I feel that talking to others is a part of a learning process .....>> I agree that talking with others on the net is fun and part of learning, but a very small part, in my opinion - the big problem is that almost no one really knows who we are talking with, and what are their credentials relative to what they are saying. What is fact, fiction and wishful thinking is very difficult to determine. When I read the New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Barrons, Fortune etc., I do not know the authors either, but I do know the reputation of the publications, as I have read them for years and I know that most professional businessmen like myself have some significant respect for them. For example, when I read anything on the editorial pages of the WSJ or Barrons, I know from experience that they have a strong right of center view of all things business and political. That helps me in balancing my analysis of their writings. I am not attacking anyone person or group on this thread, but it is true all over the net. It is so easy to self-publish, as I am now doing. Our own individual critical analysis of everything we read, especially on the internet, is going to become more and more important in the next years. As far as SI is concerned, if it were not for the news related URLs that members post, I would not bother looking here each day. For history and learning. If you ask where can I learn the most about Winston Churchill and enjoy it? My answer is read William Manchester's two masterpieces. Ken Wilson aka High-Tech East
