Now, I am on my 2nd time thru of your words, and I still don't understand. I am laughing inside as I find it very funny that I am having to expand my brain again. I appreciate your words to me and I will work at understanding. Joe is a very smart person. He has had to pound a dead horse to help me see. I am not as smart or as well read. He does a lot of outside reading. Me, I like to watch you-tube videos. So, my intellectual capabilities are, unfortunately, lacking when it comes to reading intense wordings.
I took the words "Common Sense in Modern Times" from Joe's words to me from the Daily Paul in context:
"Life is good, and that is another thing that moves Ron Paul so far from any counterfeit version of Ron Paul, if any were to dare to try to counterfeit the example who sets the bar so high.
Not Jesus, not God, no Glory, just Common Sense in Modern Times; despite the depleted demand for it."
The term "Common Sense" could have been from: http://www.ushistory.org/paine/commonsense/ which, if I remember correctly, is the first reading assignment Joe gave me when I wanted to learn some history.
The term "Modern Times" could have come from the name of a village Josiah Warren started which employed Equitable Commerce: http://tmh.floonet.net/pdf/jwarren.pdf

Anyways, since Joe mentioned a new book and said that phase to me earlier, I thought it might sound like a good title for a book and I wanted to know what he meant by saying those words to me. I appreciate your input. I am working to understand it. It is not because English is not your first language. It is my deficiency.

When you say you advise against 20th Century Russian History as a book topic do you mean that people would not take your presentation as credible because it is so far outside the norm of the politically correct understanding?
