critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn,
in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois have made it very clear
that they would never stoop to take the jobs that I had. I did yard work and
delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes,
chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on
an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires,
automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972;
collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980; and audited federal agencies
1980-1997.)
