Oh, I think I maybe heard of this guy! He should understand Owens then; as I understand she basically took the same route to her crazy. Classic extremophiles. A sensible person who becomes disenchanted with the extremities of their political persuasion becomes some kind of moderate. The people with the worst judgement do a 180° flip.
Wow. Yeah, I have gathered he went a bit off the rails there. It reminds me of how much I admired Elizabeth Kübler-Ross, and was totally off put when she seemed to go “a bit do-lally”, as the British say, at the last there. Or Elon, who impressed me so much I invested $1,000 in Tesla on Day One of IPO, before getting out 3 years later when he seemed to go sideways too. It’s sad to see people you respected behave in such a way as to lose that respect.

I heard of Ramparts thanks to Mort Sahl’s show in LA, but never got it. Did you read Harlan Ellison’s column in the Freep? He was great.

Interesting. I read a lot of Ellison back in the 80's.
