3. "I sub to Mother Jones" - I remembered that you did, I didn't want you to miss seeing that article

I'm now reading the one about how crazy northern Idaho is. p.36 IIRC.

I lived in the southeastern part of the state, in Idaho Falls, for a year, in 1975 (Gerald Ford was prez). I loved it (scenic, near the Snake River.). Fortunately back then it wasn't quite so intense politically, and I didn't get into the politics there at the time anyway, or with the "natives" except for one, and I don't remember any political conversations with her.

On one short plane trip, I sat next to my U.S. House representative, according to a label on his brief case. We didn't converse.
