That's a pretty 'exotic possibility', since Willie Mook has been a
loon around here for decades. *At least he's more entertaining than
you, though.

Even though William Mook has been a devout Rothschild and republican
Mafia cabal minion in good standing, at least he shares a great deal
of documented information and even a little personal expertise that
some of us could put to good use.

I'm not sure I'd care to see William Mook within the BHO cabinet as a
science or technology adviser, but as an outside consultant and one-
man kind of do-everything think tank, he's far better than most.
