If the idea of my speaking at Cato is still open, as it certainly should be. (and especially due to 22 more years of fascinating events after this), then I accept the idea.

I'd be proud to do it. Even after everything that's happened so far. Strike that; ESPECIALLY after everything that's happened so far! The way I see it, they're going to have to deal with this issue eventually, and it's possible that it won't be obvious to them that libertarianism and AP mix. Indeed, I think they MUST mix; we have no choice in the matter.
