Information Exchange and Squeekx.com; not squeaks.com! But, for our purpose, they sound and mean the same. It has long been said that “the squeaking wheel gets the grease.” In our case, and as implied by the quote, squeekx and squeaks are “calls to action” and Information Exchange is the medium for implementation. Action is needed in many areas of our lives to counter the adverse influences from political, religious, social, educational, financial, legal, career, etc., forces. In recent years these forces have changed drastically and are no longer as predictable or as adaptable to as they once were. There are many reasons for these changes and on the pages and postings of Squeekx.Com we will attempt to address some of the issues. Many of the “examinations” will be based only on the opinion of the author of the posted articles, tempered by opinionated input of others. But attempt will be made to support the opinions with facts and rational thought. Join the discussions through the Comments and Forums provisions offered. We will make no pretense of the absolute truth: “John 14:6 – Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” However, we will present our perceptions and solicit yours.
