Classical liberals are known as conservatives today.  we dont need a lesson on the difference between modern and classical liberals every time someone says the word  *cough*Alan*cough*

but since I'm on the topic i will admit i dont know a ton about the difference between modern and classical liberals or exactly how the classical liberals relate to modern day conservatives, aside from the free market approach to the economy.  So if some people feel the need to educate us *cough* go ahead and do it here
