WSEAS Former President Prof. Charles Long sent us this email

Here is a note I sent from a bitter soul but one who was this very sabboth morning blessed with God's spirit and felt for a while peace and bliss.  From reciting teh powerful and reverent Lord's Prayer sitting in the sun, and it occurred to me even Jews should recite this prayer, read it and see that it is something they would be proud to pray. But this WSEAS Provost almost drove me over the edge.
   Now he may have some friends but I never heard of any, all I heard was bad.  All I can say is that he is bad.  What kind of official prides himself on keeping the campus pure of emeriti who may be "overwhelming".  I never insulted a U administrator before but am proud of what I told this one.

Subject: RE: Thanks

My address is for a while at least  CLong@uwsp.edu    not president at wseas.org      I just got my computer cleansed at my own expense of course, of an awful virus and it seems OK but is working slowly.  Now you sent me a couple things from the New York Times but when I tried to download the article, an ad came on and there seems no way to get rid of the ad.  So I have to turn off the computer and begin again.  I hope things are OK for the U officialy refused to help me take out the virus that I got off their email.  But that action was of an arrogant Provost and I am proud for the first time in my life I told an administrator off and insulted him repeatedly and am proud of it.  I have never met the man, but another retired emeritus told me the Provost was an asshole.
   In any case I got a blessing from God this sabbath morning that gave me peace for a while until I began thinking again about this evil Provost, the Baezelbub of demons, you knew that word?, well I insulted him plenty anyhow.  He says the University has "liabilities if they help retired faculty".  He should say LIEABILITIES, for it was a lie,  nobody and I mean nobody will ever hold the University at fault for helping an old professor get rid of a virus that the U gave to me in the first place.  This baezelbub should see how some universities help distinguished professors with their research, conferences, etc.  Well I call him Baezelbub, for he is Lord of Mediocrity which I told him he was and how mediocrity helped itself, and he said he worked against mediocrity.  He would not recognize it if he saw it, for indeed he is Prince of Mediocrity.  He works against me and you know and I know I am not mediocre.  I told him instead to strive for excellence.   I should be Provost for I know that I am more alert and far more intelligent.
   Here is the insult I am most proud about.  I asked him how old he was, and he said in his forties.  I said oh that makes me sad, that is too damned bad, I truly feel bad about that.
      He asked why, and I said well I happen to love our chancellor Bernie Patterson, he is a wonderful man, and it appears that the Chancellor will have to put up with you many years.  he had no answer for that one. Probably the first time he was ever told that, for faculty usually suck up to Provosts.
     As you see I got my computer fixed again no thanks to
Baezelbub, who says the U could be "overwhelmed" with emerii.  Bull Shit.  Here  is the truth of it:
    Most that I know have died.   Most have lost interest in research and do not visit campus although we get free parking.  Big deal, for what should we come to campus  to do?  When I came here emeriti got offices and help, then they had to share offices, and no travel help even to read papers.  Then they got thrown out altogether.  And still some ouf us care about scholarship, but not our resident Baezelbub.  He worries about LIEABILITIES.  Now usually I just criticize administrators behind their backs b ut for the first time at age 78 I told this pinhead what was what.  I mentioned the Russians, the bureaucrats in Russia, and I have been there twice supported by the University to go there.  There are two kinds of Russian officials, those who smile and say IMPOSSIBLE.  The other kind comes up with a smile and says, HOW MAY I HELP YOU.  I asked Baezelbug which kind of Russian would he be.
      Now if I sound mean, remember I was just blessed this Sunday morning with the holy spirit and for a while I had bliss and peace, from carefully reciting teh powerful Lord's Prayer.  You should see what other  professors say about the Provost.
       One, a very quiet and dignified emeritus, asked me if I ever met the Provost, and I said no, he said well he is a sour little man.   Then he said Charles I do not like to say bad words in front of you but I must tell you the Provost is an ASSHOLE.  Then embarrassed he left.  All the guys in the shower room at rec center including two professors, another emeriuts professor, a staff member and a lot pf business people agreed that no one would seriously criticize the U for helping an old professor rid his computer of a virus.
     What gets me is that I had called the so-called HELP DESK and got a professor I think named Mark.  He told me to bring my lap top to him and in three days I could pick it up and the virus problem would be solved.  had he been there NONE of this woud have happened, and I would not have such ill will to the University, for this baezelbub is indeed the number two person on campus and of course overpaid.  But in  fact some of the working professors I talked with are the real important people at a University.               Remember Walter the story of Eisenhaur who came to Columbia where you were a full professor, and at his first faculty meeting he was talking with the professors and telling them how they fit into the university, and one great scholar like you stood up and said Mr President I would like to tell you something--- at Columbia University the faculty ARE THE UNIVERSITY.  Well on this little campus as well, all the prestige of this place which has led to such overpaid baezelbubs, is the result of dedicated and selfless professors who gave their lives to work in mediocrity and make this place have a measure of recognition.
   When baezelbug dies or retires and no doubt he is semiretired now, for I bet he never came to the campus on Christmas eve to work on his life work on mammals, I doubt if he works holidays and weekends to develop excellence.  Long after he is gone and some of the profs who play basketball tod me Provosts have a history here of leaving in a few years, which is good news for Chancellor Patterson, Well long after he is gone I shall be remembered, for the Museum of Natural History which compares with that great museum you graduated from at Harvard, and for my international work in engineering and bioengineering, and for lot of lives I inspired to go on to do their share of the scientific work of the world,
Baezelbub can say well a policy is worthwhile if it deprives the emeriti of priviledges because of LIEABILITIES. But it is a damned lie.
    Hell Walter this message should get more currency.  Should I send it to the editor of the local newspaper, which ahs not had much credit for helping the University.  Should I write an article on the decline of emeriti in academia?   Let me just list a few of many distinguished emeriti you yourself know who put their universities on the map.   At Kansas R. C. Moore who taught me two classes, got the first Gold Medal of American Paleontology at great age.  At Illinois Victor Shelford who wrote a classic monograph on ecological communities sof North America, at Stevens Point Charles A. Long who wrote the seminal books on mammals for Wyoming and Wisconsin, and about ten fine books on numerous fields of engineerign and one book at Harvard on advanced mathematics.  And at Columbia wehre you yourself served as President of the World's Ornithologists.  When the Messiah returns to earth to destroy all evil he will throw Baezelbub into the Lake of Fire to suffer forever and ever.  I cannot wait.

Hi:

Lots of snow in Tenafly but it is outside and I am inside.

The main reason for this message is to correct your email address.

Best,
