Thanks!

My response to Shahram’s request for my contribution to the anniversary of MWC news got put on the back burner and I didn’t manage to get a contribution submitted. I am taking an opportunity to rectify the situation by appending this response to Walter Davis’ piece. Actually, I met Prof. Davis through this forum and for that alone I will be eternally grateful. I truly believe Prof. Davis’ insights concerning the deep human motivations and the sociopolitical forces that dominate our culture will prove to be among the most important and revealing of a generation.  
 
The one point I wanted to make concerning my participation with MWC is that I find it quite user friendly and accessible. With many other popular sites there is no chance to interact - as in the case of Counterpunch or, like Huffington post, you must contribute your comments in competition with literally hundreds of others all clamoring for the reader’s attention. I’m sure Shahram would like an even larger number of hits on the site, but I find the intimacy with the editors and other readers refreshing in this age of Internet anonymity. I feel like I am a member of an extended, largely non-dysfunctional family. 
 
Thanks Shahram … and Peace,
