Unfortun...We're due for another decade of idealism. Unfortunately you and I are too old to partake - decades of idealism are for the very young. <br><br>You can't imagine how happy I am that I came of age in the very late 60's, how happy I am to remember that kind of idealism and innocence and openness. <br><br>I don't think that way any longer, but I don't think I'm cynical either.
