As Senator Herb Kohl, a Wisconsin Democrat, put it, "There probably isn't one person across the country today who is familiar with this case who doesn't think that it's a question of power, connection, money".
For him, it's a question of making connections: he is a brilliant programmer.
One concern I have, however, is that attending a prestigious institution then was a question of money and family connections, and not necessarily intelligence, work ethic, or academic achievement.
But that also traps the individual within the classificatory categories of the NGO concerned – this is a question of funding and global connections and classifications.
But, as Roger Angell has written again and again, there is also the question of connection — the business of being connected is essential to the business of being a fan.
The question of connection also applied to Tuesday's musicians, each of whom seemed to like the same piece at the same time, but not always in the same way.
(Mr. Moss gave his rather salty answer to this question of connection earlier in the series when he responded to Mr. Houston-Jones's invitation to organize an evening of work by presenting "Black Dance," a program featuring three non-African-American artists).
The question of connection occupies the bulk of the vast literature on causation.
It becomes a question of how do we study this connection, and how do we trace it its evolution beyond these two countries and even the Arab World as a whole.
It also claims that the Uzbekistan regime orchestrated previous attacks to create a pretext for repression.Inevitably, the question of a connection with al-Qaeda has also been raised.
But there is a simpler answer to the question of what connections link conservative social and economic views, Nunberg says: "There aren't any".
