One need only recall the story of the alleged "scientist in the baseball
cap," seen at a distance, unable to be interviewed by "reporter" Judith
Miller, pointing to a spot in the desert where some unknown, unidentified
chemicals had allegedly been disposed, and its "proof" of the existence of
WMD, to realize what a complete and utter load of crap Mr. Okrent is
peddling.

Thanks for sharing the letter, Stuart.
