A note from Joe

Dear friends, associates and fellow travelers,

As you may or may not know, I have been struck down by an extremely serious form
of cancer. Presently I am back in the United States receiving treatment through the
U.S. Veterans Administration hospital system. Due to the nature of the massive
internal tumor, I am currently unable to even carry on email correspondence or
Skype conversations.

Right now I am at a hospital in Morgantown, West Virginia. Once a treatment
program has been designed and set in motion, I will probably be transferred back to
the Veterans Administration facility near my home in Winchester, Virginia. The
condition is inoperable, but it is hoped that with chemotherapy plus the use of a pain
killer such as OxyContin, I will be able to resume my online work.

As soon as I am able to sit up long enough to work online and carry on Skype
conversations, I will do so. Until then, please have patience and bear with me in this
frustrating and difficult time. Business correspondence and relationships will not be
interrupted during this period of recovery because I have several persons willing to
work with me through dictation.

Thank all of you very much for your friendship and patience.

-- Joe Bageant
