Dear Yossi:

Thank you so very much. You have touched precisely on my point. Why should I bother to write about things that everyone else writes about...I am predisposed, by my very nature, to saying (either orally or in print) the things that many people think about but are too frightened to speak of, or to admit to.

I want to 1) capture people's attention, 2) get them to read what I've written, and 3) force them to think, or perhaps even take action.

We live in a society that is as confused as it is conformed -- where we use the term "politically correct" to cover lies and denial. Thoughout history, no strides or advances have been made by pallid conformists, social automatons and bureauocrats.

Someone has to shake people awake. Perhaps that's my mission. Since I am not good at much else, it makes my career choice simple.

In friendship,

Douglas

The things not often spoken about; those are the things Douglas writes about.
Be interesting. Don't just try to get attention by being louder and more in your face than the guy next to you. We are all so well trained (by necessity) to drown out that kind of noise. If you have value you will get noticed.
