I've only read three or four of your posts, Ken, but they've
stirred up some sixty-year old memories that have always been a little
unsettling for me. The first involved a bright kid in our squadron who
had no capacity for equilibrium in his life and it was a torment for
him. He solved his problem one night by going outside our quarters
into a little guard shack and, .. Putting a .38 in his mouth took the
top of his head off. Guys were dropping like flies, but for some
reason that one seemed even more senseless and bothered me for a number
of years. He came from a good family, (his father was a dermatologist)
and he had a lot of potential. Unless you're getting a lot of
enjoyment from your views, I'd recommend you try to bend just a
little. Seeing both sides of an issue is the sign of a mature mind.
