-- by Richard Polt.

Actually, anyone who read the April feature article in the New York Times "Circuits" section on Richard and his mechanical obsession will have reason for hope.

“Burning Symbols“An Essay on Idolatry and Freedom of Speech by Gregory Fried
Flag-burning, cross-burning, the Confederate battle flag and the Presidential race.
