Thanks. You, like me, have actually read and heard serious pieces by Avakian, and have worked in the real world with the revcoms and thus, I am guessing, share some or much or all of my disdain for those snarky know-it-all anti-communist anti-revolutionary "leftists" who pontificate on the impossibility of revolution and who even mock those who agitate for one while themseles having never lifted more than a tenth of a finger to try to bring about what those white men Marx and Engels rightly called the alternatiive to "the common ruin of all the contended classes." I left out a fair bit of the snark and digs.

I have to admit that I didn't even know about Avakian and the Revcoms before reading your work. Thanks for broadening my horizons.
