Jack-I happened to listen to O'Reilly when he made his diatribe against Jet Blue. As I told you he was very effective and sounded most reasonable as he critiqued the airline for being associated with a blog that printed an occasional crude statement about Cheney and Bush. The interview with the president of Jet Blue was a disaster for the airline. He did not handle it well and eventually collapsed and dissolved his sponsorship of the event. I agee with you he should have challenged the assertions particularly the ty-in with George Soros-another famous O'Reilly trick. O"reilly is effective because he seems to be logical when he spews his venom. And he picks his spots very carefully so that someone with lesser knowledge of the facts is quickly won over. Air America should have followed this model instead of making highly partisan statements that ofter offended its own constituency. They deserved to fail.

I am much more optimistic about the future than you are Hillary. I see tribal rivalries dissolving and the desire for a peaceful existance trumping all other factors, including the phony issue of terrorism. The state of the world should not enter into the equation of deciding whether or not to have childrn. There are valid arguments on either side of this issue and only you and Scott can evaluate them. They can be a burden and a blessing. But do not let some guy in a robe in Afganistan make the decision for you.

Hillary and Jack – Once again, I feel privileged to be able to read your insightful thoughts on such an important topic. As far as we know, our way of life may be the only kind in existence in te universe. While it's quite distressing to think that we may be on a path to destroy the planet on which we live, I think the meaning of life (or one of the central meanings) is to work to leave the world in a a better place than when we found it. Indeed, perhaps our children will be the ones to save the planet from destruction? I feel that if all of us have this mindset, and teach our children to love the planet and protect it, the next generation, and their children, will take us down a path toward prosperity on this beautiful planet.

Hillary and Jack,
As a Mom and wife of you two, I am very proud of your thoughtful insights into the age old discussion of whether or not to have children.
Hillary, planning your wedding now is such a joy that I cringe at the thought of not having had you. There were difficult times, sure, but any relationship worth having ebbs and flows with these times.
The benefits of having children well outweigh the negatives and we all must help to improve the human condition in whatever way we can.
