Road Rage: The American IED
The troops in Iraq face daily threats from IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices). Turns out that here in the States you can be victimized by another kind of IED: "Intermittent Explosive Disorder," which is the technical name for outbursts like Road Rage. According to CNN, up to 16 million Americans suffer from IED.
I teach Communication Studies (First Amendment, Classical Rhetoric, Civic Engagement, Rhetoric of Rock Music) at UW Oshkosh. Served two terms on Oshkosh City Council. Originally from Brooklyn, NY.
