This guy is an incredible flake. Runs his own church, believes the
government was complicit in 9/11, runs with the Berkeley crowd, etc.

My thoughts are same as Ed's.

Meanwhile (related, but not central),
I'm willing to be informed about something that
early in Bowman's letter jiggled my "flake meter".

Bowman says,
"I'm just an old fighter pilot (101 combat missions in
Vietnam , F-4 Phantom, Phu Cat, 1969-1970) who's now a
disabled veteran with terminal cancer from Agent Orange."

Can someone inform me how a AF F-4 pilot was
that exposed to Agent Orange?
(seems to me a lot of not-vets as well as vets, as they
get past age 70, have increasing cases of various cancers,
"What?! Think you are going to live forever?!")
