You make good points, Lauren.
My stance is predicated upon a long-standing friendship with Jim -- one that, while not as deep as that between Greg Burnham and Jim, leads me to my call for sensitivity.
I'll be the first to admit that, over the past two years or so, I have been extremely cutting in my public criticisms of all things Fetzer. But in the wake of the Cinque debacle, I can see quite clearly that the mind I once so greatly admired is no longer in existence.
Jim needs help. I'm obliged to do what I can for him. And under the circumstances, the only help I can offer is the suggestion powering this thread.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
