What's the matter. Ain't they got any guts? ...... Is Forrie a 37 or 40 mm. Ack-Ack? ....... Oooooh. Ramblings: Finally Jack and I agree on something. Since we got into the war I've believed that the layman cannot criticize the military conduct of the war because of the x fact that that the layman does not know and has no way of knowing how the war is actually being conducted. While you are shouting for a second front, one is being prepared. But on the other hand, people can't sit back in silence and wait for the generals to fight the war. Suppose the African offensive had not been in preparation? Then the protests would have been justified. Mass meeting and related things are necessary just for the sake of the record. Curious to know just who is the "moral fibre" man Speer dialogues with. Seems to me the lists of names used for examples are rather heavily weighted. You could probably draw up a list that would support the negative side. After comparing my own characteristics with those given for both sides, I conclude that "moral fibre" is as much of a xx fiction as "general intelligence," whose existence has yet to be proven. Earl Singleton is almost as badly off as Edmund Hall, the New Adam. I don't sympathize. I'd have to be sorry for myself if I did. A person is bored only by himself, and by nothing else. Speer's style is excellent this mailing. Quite concise, and sounds like he'd some some fore-planning. Incidentally, Jack, in the Instrument Repair section, where I'm teaching, one of the fellows cooked up a word-association test to give to the new students. One section measured introvert-extrovert tendencies, while the other measured mechanical aptitude. The test was standardized on us instructors. I turned out to have a high mechanical aptitude, which pleased me, but in the other part of the test I came out in the middle group, on the extrovert side. Isn't that funny? When the results of the entire group were plotted, it was found that the introverts tended to have a higher mechanical aptitude than the others. My score threw everything off on that account.
