"Please Note: An editor at Huffington Post feels my comment below about 'news delayed' is unfair. He requests that I post this further explanation: The author of the post [is] posthumous, so we have no way of going through the usual back and forth with its author during the editing process. That is a critical factual point missing in your introduction, and to leave it out misrepresents a major reason for the delay in editing. I hope that you will add it.
Further, the Huffington editor states, I'm sorry that the hours we have already spent and had planned to spend on this post weren't apparent to you."
Huffington Post just lost a last great post by Jerry Bracey, submitted posthumously by Susan Ohanian. Seems HuffPo will put up any meaningless mush by Tom (Elwood Blues) Van der Ark, but when there is real story about a real neolib icon like Arne, well, not so much.
Gerald W. Bracey - December 02, 2009
[Editor's Note by Susan Ohanian: Jerry Bracey had just finished this column when he died on Oct. 20. He had planned to release it at his Huffington Post blog on Halloween. Hence the rattling skeletons theme. I found out about it and posted it at my Huffington Post spot on Nov. 18, where it still waits "approval" by the Chicago editor.
