Funny thing: in 1975, Eric Hoffer wrote in his book Before the Sabbath, about what an alibi-crumbling place America was. If I'm not mistaken, you grew up during the years when the 'Great' Rondini took us all to Pleasure Island and put new life into all the lies you mention, thanks to the majority of my de-generation who fell for his Barnummery.

And now we're headed for the salt mines unless we face up to the unpalatable truths we should have faced in 1980.

Maybe when Hoffer wrote those words, there was still some leftover 1960s honesty, now long since gone but maybe rising again, thanks to you amongst others.
