Along those lines, here's an e-mail I just received from one of my son's out on the "LEFT Coast."

Pop,

I was listening to Coast to Coast AM with George Nooney--the ghosts, UFOs, Big Foot show--and one guest was on claiming that he just back from Afghanistan. The guy, Robert Young Pelton, started talking about the "back pack nukes" that "SF carries on their back". His quote, "Special Forces were trained to uses these nukes to carry out suicide bombings". He also said, "They would have to assemble them (the back pack nukes) together that would be the size of a small fridge". Just letting you know. This is the kind of disinformation you were always telling us about and is everywhere out here, this kind of shit and half-truths.


FYI, he's managing my ranch in the Sacramento Valley until we sell it. Makes me proud when he does what he's been taught--takes in the info, analyzes it, and then thinks for himself.

As for the guy's remarks about SF 'suicide bomgings'--other than having his 'facts' all wrong, I never met anyone in SF who would have bought into that nuclear kamikaze concept.
