I (this writer) do hereby swear on any Deity that ever was, is, or might show up one day, that I have personally (with my own eyes) seen a version on-line of a book by Mr. Anatol Rapoport titled "Certainties and Doubts" containing the following statement (by Mr. Rapoport) : "I believe in socialism".

I have not seen self-same statement in a version of self-same title I have seen on-line most recently. Something somewhere has gone wrong.

The topic might warrant a paragraph or two more ; which I should supply when I am in a better mood (the circumstances permitting).
