Extraordinary!
Frank, do you remember a comment or reference to some writer who said that it might have been a good thing that the old Mass was hidden all these years else it might have been contaminated by the craziness in the 70s especially? Not those words, but that idea. I’m going nuts trying to remember.
Thanks for the ping Frank!
Well, I just learned that that a group in my diocese is mobilizing by collecting e-mail addresses of interested folks who want the Extraordinary form of the mass! Several years ago, a group approached our bishop with a request and a list of 400 signatures. They are trying to contact them all. There are SEVEN priests who are desiring to learn the TLM!
Keep us in your prayers, here in the Greensburg Diocese in western Pa! We are one of two dioceses in Pa where our bishop would not allow an indult.
The website, for anybody in the area, is:

The organizing group is part of St. Vincent College in Latrobe, Pa.
That’s good news — sounds like you’re making progress! :)

I remember that post and remember thinking what a great thought - making lemonade out of lemons!
Was it livius who posted it?
National Catholic REGISTER on Motu Proprio. It's an article by Joe Cullen. The lines I was thinking of are:
It was in those years, the late 1960s, when the western world experienced profound tumult — a true cultural hurricane. When a hurricane is bearing down, you wrap your old treasures up and find a safe place for them, usually the attic, and you leave them hidden until the storms have certainly passed.English Jesuit Father Hugh Thwaites is especially fond of this analogy because much of the blame for the collapse that Catholicism experienced in many places in those years would have fallen disproportionately on the Latin Mass — had it been around to take the hit.
Instead, the classic form of the Mass was out of sight and safe, and now those who remember it and those who are just discovering it, are reaping what the poet Casini foresaw in 1976 when he predicted the return of the Tridentine missal with the same confidence that he placed in tomorrow’s sunrise:
“It will rise again, ... the Mass will rise again … because it is the sun, and God thus established it for our life and comfort.” When it happens, he said, our eyes will be found “guilty of not having esteemed it worthily before the eclipse; our hearts guilty for not having loved it enough.”
It took approximately forever to track it down -- I couldn't remember enough specific words to do an effective search, but I finally came up with a combination that worked. Maybe I should start taking gingko biloba! ;-)
LOL! Too funny!
Marking for future reference. Rorate Caeli blog did a post on the poet Casini.
