Do you grow your own vegetables, Fabian? Do you slaughter animals that 
you have raised on your own property, or do you hunt for all your meat?

I think it's always unwise to assume that a dead man would support any 
position I might hold.

There are communities of yeoman farmers still alive today. There are 
still Shaker communities, down a little from 20 in their heyday. The 
Amish are still prevalent in some parts of Pennsylvania. Mennonites have 
some of the same ethic. Shaker furniture, by the way, is among the best 
I've ever seen.

I would think you would fit right in, Fabian. Have you ever considered 
joining them?

Oh, by the way, equality of the sexes is a basic belief of Shakers.

I think you have every right to pursue a do-it-yourself lifestyle. In 
fact, I would encourage you to do it more than you presently do, so that 
you don't come across as being hypocritical. But I think even Jefferson 
would shy away from saying that everyone should live the way he did.

By the way, you know that a lot of the work done on Jefferson's estate 
was done by slaves, don't you? And that he slept with the women among them?
