The following email is self-explanatory in its addressing what amounts to a completely contemptuous and anti-American "interpretation" of 'lessons to be learned" from the millions killed in Cambodia after John F'ing Kerry and associates engineered the U.S. pullout from that part of the world:

Subject: Lessons from the sickness of a Rutgers assoc. professor
To: AHINTON@ANDROMEDA.RUTGERS.EDU (Alex Hinton)
Dear Mr. Hinton,
I perused with lurid fascination your essay "Lessons from killing fields of Cambodia - 30 years on" at http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/0414/p09s02-coop.html .
I also noted a story about the article entitled "A Very Sick Professor" on the blog Powerlineblog.com ( http://powerlineblog.com/archives/010167.php ).
As a former academic myself, I'm inclined to agree with that blog's assessment of you. The New York Times article "Iraqis Find Graves Thought to Hold Hussein's Victims" ( http://www.nytimes.com/2005/04/15/international/middleeast/15graves.html ), which you should read, can be used to demonstrate that you suffer from the following brain malfunctions. I will give you an example of each:
Faulty Pattern Recognition
Example: His last six wives were murdered mysteriously. I hope to be wife number seven.
Failure to Recognise what's Important
Example: My house is on fire! Quick, call the post office and tell them to hold my mail!
Taking Things to Their Illogical Conclusion
Example: If you let your barber cut your hair, the next thing you know he'll be lopping off your limbs!
Judging the Whole by One of Its Characteristics
Example: The sun causes sunburns. Therefore, the planet would be better off without the sun.
Irrelevant Comparisons
Example: A hundred dollars is a good price for a toaster, compared to buying a Ferrari.
Faulty Cause and Effect
Example: On the basis of my observations, wearing huge trousers makes you fat.
Total Logical Disconnect
Example: I enjoy pasta because my house is made of bricks.
I hope this analysis is of use to you as you formulate future compositions.
