RE:

Hey Frank,

Money talks I guess, and personal interest prevail: it's not new anyways, has allways been since the beginning of time I believe ( at least for the personal interest : from masters to kings and aristocrates to the rich or powerfull govermental nomenklaturas, and I won't talk about blessed representants of God, mafias and sects... ).

Something JFK said that as allways caught my attention is:

We have the means to nourish the entire world, and the power to destroy it ( I can't remember how it exact phrase...).

Which means human consciousness is a double edge sword: we are conscious of suffering as well as for the more beautifull things in life; And being conscious, we have the possibility to act upon what's happening around us ( saving the ill, assisting birth, but also murder, rape and stealing ).

I believe "good" is human and part animal, and "evil" is animal, but part human.

So past these philosopical thoughts, what can we do if it's not to continue to try through generations, every one of them leaving a testimony for the new one to try again and harder, even if we will allways be outnumberd by the wronged intentionned ?

This is why I said that you would never die Frank: you've tried and you're continuing to fight, and many will remember Frank Moore as a kind of warrior who showed them that the will could triomph over adversity.

At least I will, as for your friends , close or far fetched, and I will teach my children and my blood about you :)

Thank you Frank: in the end, knowing you, even if we have a virtual and mind to mind bounding, gives me strenght.

D'idéaliste à idéaliste,

ah, shucks, Rafael... That means a lot to me. As Ozzie Davis, the black actor /activist said shortly before he died in his eighties, the trick of this phase of life is don't make a fool of yourself before you exit... Meaning don't take back [undermine] what you did in your life to be comfortable. That is being responsible! But I just found out that my life expectancy is thirty more years! Ain't that a bitch?!

For years I have been saying it was a crime that I can be on the Berkeley public access channel up to six hours a night every night to fill empty air. I would be happy to have my air time slots cut for new local shows. But they don't have new local shows to fill empty air when they force my shows off the air!

In Freedom,
Frank Moore
