P.S. Re Francione's Talks

I said I've seen a number of talks by Francione and he did not mention non-violence. Perfectly true. But I have not heard him speak in the last decade. These were early days, before he was banned from certain venues apparently. Perhaps "Kaufman" heard Gary more recently and might assume that I would have heard like talks. Alas, that is not the case. If I had had "Kaufman's" knowledge-base then what is obvious to him would have obviated my own wondering in this case. But it should never be assumed that others share the same knowledge-base.
