Dear HCN,
The article about Sid
Goodloe (HCN, 4/15/96) and his ranch reconstruction is a real
winner: The guy has spent 40 years working and seems to be on the
right track. He has actually done something to show how it can be
done; the reasoning and understanding that he has developed is
amazing. It reminds me of a very old joke. The lawyer was called at
3 a.m. and the client told the lawyer that he had just been
arrested for spitting on the sidewalk. The lawyer’s response was,
“They can’t do that!” The client’s reply was, “I’m talking from the
jail phone.”
