Bob Whitson is a long time resident of Boulder, Colorado where he was the city transportation manager for many years, creating one of the most friendly transit cities in the country. He's a river runner par excellence and has run his raft down the Grand Canyon, Colorado over 18 times. Birding and anti-Bushing are his major obsessions. Oh, Cormac McCarthy and Bob Dylan, too.

Words for Acts

Of all the enemies of public liberty, war is perhaps the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies. From these proceed debt and taxes. And armies, debts and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few...No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.

James Madison, 1795
