Charlie Rose was so good to bring us Mailer and more Mailer and yet again smore Mailer. What a treat to see them going at it around that nice round table for two. He montaged them all as a memorial also. And as has been said we do have a library of his words in print in case we langour in our loss. But there is not another one coming.

I am grateful though surprised we don’t have another Waco on our hands. How can the cry of help from one woman get this ball rolling when there are thousands of abused women in this country who live in terror for their lives and are not protected by the law enforcers of their city, country, state? And why are they unable to identify the person who made the accusation? Perhaps she is in protective custody. Anyway the lives of many are abruptly twisted and will be for a long time to come if not forever.
