Speaking out

Dear Conrad: Thank you for your very thoughtful and comprehensive post. I read it once this morning and need to come back to it. I already learned from it a lot and need to digest the many valuable points you are making. I am sure I will come back to you for more!

Best wishes.

individuals and groups. As David Merrick points out psychology and for that
matter also sociology are important aspects to consider...............
