First, thanks for putting this in Dave. Thanks also to you Jim for the kind words. Semper Fi to you as well. I think I’ll say a few things about this election

We’re seeing the end of the Baby Boomers running for president (I’m not a baby boomer – I don’t think there’s a classification for my group). Next presidential election will be between younger people. No matter who wins this election, events are far ahead of either candidate. The technology is moving so rapidly, neither one of them can fathom what is coming. They’re both standing in front of a tidal wave of change. Change used to take generations and then decades. Now, change is tomorrow morning. No one can stay abreast of it. There will be robots within a very few years mowing lawns, picking up the garbage, babies will be born with incredible intellects, certain genes that have hereditary defects will be eliminated, space travel will be an everyday occurance, people will travel to Sydney Australia in 45 mins., etc. I never envisioned the most interesting part of my life would come at it’s closing years.

I’m still campaigning for Trump of course.
Tom,
Thank you for your compliment and response to my piece in The Coaster on School Consolidation. Our politics may be different, but we may have more common ground regarding schools than apparent. If you want to meet and talk, I would be happy to do so. I think we could inform one another.
Best wishes,
Jon Shutman

A true patriot.
I really like that guy. Keep up the spirit.
I thank the Asbury Park Press for printing it. In NY Times Land there is no bad Hillary stories.
I have always liked Tom Dilberger his
thoughts and the way he vocalizes them.
The same for Mrs. Dilberger.
Thanks, Tulip, for the kind words.
And thanks, Dave for being there.
