One is addressed primarily to the European high--energy physics community, the other to the American. A common theme of these presentations is a plea for the rational allocation of the limited funds society provides for high--energy physics research. If my `loose cannon' remarks may seem irresponsible to some of my colleagues, my silence would be more so.11 pagesHigh Energy Physics - Theorytext
