On Our Latest Reports

**CAF Note: Yes, we just keep peeling the onion, and keep finding there is more to peel!**

By a Solari Report Subscriber

I am taking time off to write to one of my favorite people simply because you have been so much on my mind of late! I feel as if the last three Solari Reports have catapulted me onto a whole new level of understanding. What seemed to trigger this awareness was the historical perspective with which Don Coxe contextualized so many issues this week. Although I was already familiar with many of the significant historical events he referred to just from my study of history, what was thrilling was being led to see those events through a lens totally unfamiliar to me.

This being said however, I don’t think that last Thursday’s Report would have made such a strong impact had it not been for your Report the week before. As I listened, the image of Ibsen’s Peer Gynt came mind time and again. Back in the mid-1980’s I had the privilege of seeing the full production of that masterpiece in the Gouthrie Theatre in Minneapolis. The performance lasted all day but only one scene has remained indelibly imprinted in my memory over the years. It was of Peer sitting alone in the forest. He was holding an onion and as he peeled off layer after layer he reflected on his life’s experiences, engaging the while in an existential search into the core of who he really was. That’s what I felt you were doing as I listened to you strip off the layers of power embedded in the Breakaway Economy. It was an amazing piece of work.

Nevertheless, I don’t think that even that Report would have made such strong impact on me had it not been preceded the week before by your unbelievably rich conversation with Richard Dolan. I think it was the sequence and timing of these three Reports that made the Don Coxe conversation so significant. His was like tying a beautiful bow of understanding around a whole package of insights. I only wish there were folks around here with whom to mull things over in some lively spurts of conversation!

It’s been a great month and I hope it has been the same for you.
