2 LC to FT 8/9/79

I am now working as a self exploiter as you will note from the enclosed CONSULTANT business card. (I resigned from the Federal service July 16, 1979.) I shall send one of these cards to Fellow Worker Hargis so he can transfer me from I.U. 670 to whatever Industrial Union consultants and writers in the field of human ecology may properly belong.

I gain from your note of April 22 that you didn't like my ballad "HARRISBURG BLUES." But the young scissorbills in the anti-nuke movement down here like it. Lin Mc Nickel Odend'hal, an Athen's folk singer, liked it so much she set it to music and sang it June 2 at a big demonstration at the State Capital steps in Atlanta. (See photos.) Frank Marquart also read the piece as the close of his speech on May Day in Albuquerque. He wrote me it went over big. Lin also got a big hand when she sang H B. We have copyrighted the words and music just so no big-shot could record the piece without clearing with Lin who owns the copyright. Mary scored the piece from LIn's cassette. I shall send you copy of the thing under separate cover. You can try the piece on your own piano -- even if you don't like illogical propaganda songs.

The condensation of my "INVOCATION FOR MAY DAY"you sent me in your April 12 letter shows excellent taste. You used the two stanzas that were most original and forceful. Now
