Another something I do not grok.

Dearest was nearly frothing with indignation after reading the 60 Minutes investigation into the kangaroo court trial of Alabama Governor Bob Seigelman. And it's hard not to understand why.

I didn't appreciate "Stranger in a Strange Land" as much as I probably should (rather like the--hopefully fictional--person who complained of "Hamlet" being full of cliches). But Heinlein's character Mike's horror at the idea of imprisoning a person--and, more to the point, his further dismay that the "...worst ones are on the outside" come to mind right now.
