Therefore, that is a restriction on creativity. Therefore, that is a restriction on productivity – the human pro- ductivity that we talked about the last time. By the same token, if Trump gets in, I still don’t know what to do because I don’t know exactly how he is going to be able to influence this behe- moth of an out-of-control government. Fitts: Trump, I cannot tell you about, but I’ve been dealing with the Clintons for 18 years, so I can give you a briefing. Maybe we should do a Solari Report on how to deal with the Clintons. Farrell: Listen, that would be good because I don’t think many of the foreign listeners, other than perhaps the British, have a real clue as to how deep their corruption really is, going all the way back to their Arkansas years. The whole business with Mena and Barry Seal and Terry Reed and the deep connection of the Bushs and the Clintons and most people are unaware. Maybe a review would be good, and I’m very serious. Fitts: I know, but sometimes on the Round Up – our team gets together for the Round Up twice a week – I’ll say, “Okay, on this story are we will- ing to spend $2,000 on hacking costs to do this? Are we willing to do $5,000? What is our price point?” We have to price it; it’s a practical issue. Some stories are so good that I say, “I don’t care if it’s going to cost $5,000. I’m going to do it.” Farrell: Yes. Fitts: It’s all part of the financial equation. There are two things that I would do. I agree with you that uncertainty is significant and risk is rising. The two things that I always do is pray because I believe that if I’m where the Big Guy wants me, I’ll be fine. The other thing is: I’m going to be in Tulsa on October 15th. The one thing that I can tell you without any uncertainty is that you and I are going to have a blast. Farrell: I agree. Whenever we get together with these groups we always have these wonderful, un- scripted conversations. I’m serious! They go off in 1,000 different directions, and those conver- sations are a part of human productivity because when you start listening to other people’s take on things, you start to realize, “Oh, I hadn’t thought of that,” and you start pooling the ideas together. This is when great things happen. I look forward to every conference and all of these get-togethers like we’re having in Tulsa. I love those things because I love to listen to peo- ple’s ideas and bounce things around. Fitts: Right. I particularly like it when I’m not the designated driver. Farrell: Me too. Fitts: So, ladies and gentlemen, you can learn more on our website. October 15th is dinner from 7-11pm in Tulsa, and I think you’re going to really enjoy it if you can make it. Joseph, that is it for Part One. Thank you very much, and I look forward to Part Two the following week. Farrell: Thank you for having me back. 3RD QUARTER WRAP UP PART TWO Fitts: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Solari Report. This is the 3rd Quarter Wrap Up: News Trends and Stories. We had a great con- versation with Dr. Farrell last week on part one, which was Economy and Financial Markets and Geopolitics. This is part two, and we’re to talk Science and Technology. If you haven’t listened to that earlier conversa- tion, let me say it was good. It had a lot of, what Joseph would call “high-octane speculation.” I encourage you to go back and listen. We will have the transcripts on the Solari website. We have a web presentation with links to all the trends and stories. We encourage you to access that web presentation, and we’ll have the full transcript in the pdf and hard copy, so stay tuned. Well, Dr. Joseph Farrell, welcome back to The Solari Report.
