Philip,
So you liked that trip up the Alaska highway in the early 70's? I am glad you are there to speak up. I just read Greg Pallast's book "Vulture's Picnic" and am reading "The Fate of Nature" by Charles Wohlforth. I highly recoomend them but you are probably way ahead of me. How about the new Tom Waits album, "Bad as Me"?
I'm the last leaf on the tree.

Bob!

Happy New Year, my dear friend. It is so good to hear from you.

(Bob Wells and I drove the Alcan in early April 1973. It was my entry to Alaska, and it changed my life so very, very much.)
