"Mass-market nostalgia gets you hopped up for a past that never existed. Hagiography sanctifies shuck-and-jive politicians and reinvents their expedient gestures as moments of great moral weight. Our continuing narrative line is blurred past truth and hindsight. Only a reckless verisimilitude can set that line straight."

It's a damn interesting world we's livin' in, ain't it?
I've been wondering; if J. Denver was still kickin' if he'd change the lyrics to, "Rocky Mt high, radiation, Rocky Mt high, radiation..."
The world has taken on a new, um, glow lately.
Peace
