The passing of an era.

Perhaps there will be a whole new generation of disturbed stalkers mumbling to themselves, but with copies of "Recommended Levels of Insulation" in their trenchcoat pockets instead of "The Catcher In The Rye."

"Rye" IMO was an overrated book, predictable, but just what the leftist establishment pushed as "art" and "great literature" back then....

think of all the things that pushed the "okay" button back in the radical leftist 60's and this was one of them...sexual experimentation, and exploration etc is ALL GOOD....

we started losing whatever social norms right about then....along with Playboy and the pill.

so when people complain about legalizing weed and legalizing homosexual "marriage"....well it had its beginnings back then.

Thanks to Core Curriculum and people like Bill Ayers and Linda Darling-Hammond - they will be mumbling to themselves about the Revolution
