Was just speaking to a brother yesterday who met this guy several times and is very familiar with the Dar, Ummah, and the rest of them. His impression of the guy was different than Abu Noor's. Inshallah, there is a book (Muslim authored) coming out some time this year I think or early 2010 about the Dar and its offshoots, and how this has affected the history of American Muslims, even though, apparently, a lot of us don't even know about this stuff.

Wow. I guess I'll just add this to that long list of reasons why I'm glad I dropped out of journalism school in my last semester, saving me from having to explain for decades to come why I got a Bachelor of Journalism.
