	Yes, you can. Wolfe told me that he used to be a Buckley-type
conservative, but has become broader in his thinking over the years. He
said, "I'm big on freedom, and we have lost a lot in recent years." See
also Free, Life, Free. 
	I also asked him if he were going to re-write Operation ARES. He said no,
but I think you are right that he has incorporated much of it in Long Sun. 
	My whole interview with Wolfe is on Paul Duggan's Wolfe Page.
