What a marvelous series this promises to be [An Ongoing Conversation About Libertarianism and Revisionism]. Six months ago I would not have given a “Holocaust Revisionist” any credibility whatsoever. Ad homonym attacks are common because they tend to be very effective (and require little intellectual or factual ammunition), and I had bought into the often-expressed…

Marco den Ouden, president of the West Coast Libertarian Foundation in Vancouver (Canada), contacts me by email. “Brad, I understand that you are a political libertarian as am I. There are two revisionists in our group here and … one of them and myself have started discussing [revisionism] at length. We started with a short…

When I badly need a telephone number to call a man in Colorado, where do I turn? The Institute for Historical Review. We have need of a ten-year-old photo of smiling Simon-Wiesenthal-Center rabbis yaking it up with Nazi “war criminal” Kurt Waldheim for a SR story. I call IHR and a few days later I…

Thanks for the continued provision of Smith’s Report and listings of available publications. This contact is especially welcome in that Internet access at my place of business is subject to censorship. Linkage to your Website (and that of IHR) is prevented by the ominous WEBTRAC CONTROL, which lists your site as one prohibited under the…

Just got back from the IHR special meeting in Costa Mesa where David Irving and Costas Zaverdinos spoke. I’m on deadline for this issue of SR and can’t report on the meeting other than to say it was quite successful with upwards of 200 attendees, and that I’m glad I went. Had a chat with…

In addition to revisionist history, there is the related matter of the history of revisionism, a subject I do not think can be done at the moment. The person I thought capable of doing this right was Keith Stimely [editor of The Journal of Historical Review in the early 1980s], and I am still grieving…

It’s been a nice month. Four storms passed through. My office is on the second floor and I can walk out on the terraza and see in three directions. To the west we are the fourth house from the end of the street. Beyond a concrete block wall are fields a quarter mile across and…

I found your Web page and was deeply moved. Do you know the story, surely apocryphal, about Mozart discovering the music of J.S. Bach? According to the story Mozart was already an established composer by the time of this discovery (which was quite possible, given Bach’s obscurity as a composer in those days), and after…

When we moved from Visalia to Baja Mexico last summer, I mentioned that everyone came, Irene and me, Paloma, Grandma, the birds, our dog Katy, and Pete the cat. Several people mentioned they would like to see a photo of Pete. No one mentioned Grandma or Katy. So here’s Pete. The kid? Paloma, just before…

[Please inform me if you do not want your name mentioned in SR. While I read every letter that crosses my desk, I can not respond to any that does not pertain to important business needing immediate attention.] I just read David Cole's “repudiation” on the CODOH website. Instant reactions: You are quite right to…
