Dear Catherine,

I miss having our mini conversations but I am thrilled that you have had that road trip and time in Montana. I l-o-v-e Montana and have driven its vast and varied expanses of beauty so many times. My friends are in Deer Lodge, Missoula, Bozeman and (formerly) in Big Fork, so everything you described on the blog was so familiar.

The last two Reports have been spectacular. I am determined to read The Art of War but I don’t know when that will be because I am gearing up to a full teaching load — at least full for me. But about last night, and Richard Dolan’s take on the Clash of Civilizations. It makes such sense the way you connected all of that with the black budget. I appreciated his openness so far as pinning down any of the possible explanations—remaining open and really quite gentle.

This whole Solari adventure has totally blown me away! It is an ‘edventure’ par excellence—I just can’t keep up with the blog and get anything else done!!!.

Last winter I read The Fourth Reich. I thought that Naomi Klein [‘s Shock Doctrine} was bad enough but if The Fourth Reich connection has any validity it can certainly help explain the science and technology connection that Richard [Nolan] was speaking about.

What amazes me is that with all this wallowing around in considerations of unbelievably destructive forces, I retain the gift of continuing to believe that we are held in the care of a loving, life-giving God—the gift I pray for you even more earnestly as each day passes.

Love

Fleurette
