[quote]Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is scheduled to address a throng of rich and powerful men on Friday under the towering redwoods at the Bohemian Grove as the annual encampment along the Russian River in Monte Rio enters its final weekend. No one other than Bohemian Club members and their guests will hear the governor's speech, which is — like everything that transpires during the 17-day midsummer enclave — done in absolute privacy. Plutocrats and powerbrokers, including former presidents, annually flock to the 2,700-acre wooded retreat where neither women, other than grove employees, nor outsiders of either gender are permitted. “It's a private gentleman's club,� club spokesman Sam Singer said. “People are coming to get away from the duties of daily life. They don't desire to be on the front page of The Press Democrat or The New York Times. “In real life, they get there often enough,� he said. The club has about 2,000 members. Mixing their revelry and weird rituals with serious issues, the Bohemians hear from a series of speakers, this year including media mogul Rupert Murdoch, who discussed “the future of news� and former secretaries of state George Shultz and James Baker on international relations and terrorism threats. The speakers list, including ex-President George H. W. Bush in 1995 and not-yet President Richard Nixon in 1967, remains a well-guarded secret.[/quote] http://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/20100728/ARTICLES/100729459?Title=Schwarzenegger-to-speak-at-Bohemian-Club-conclave&tc=ar That's right.
