Yogi- Way OT <<Jeez, I can't even slip an Abbie Hoffman allusion by you two. Most people I run into don't even remember who he was.>> For a reminder in case anyone is interested: thenation.com In those days as I wrestled with my own feelings about the Vietnam war Hoffman was just one more voice in the cacophony. Some might say that the world needs the Hoffman's to jar us awake and jerk us back to a moderate ground. They may have a point. In hindsight the Vietnam engagement was madness for our country..one of the great follies of time as written about by Barbara Tuchmann in her book "The March of Folly". Hoffman (and others) radicalized the SDS into the loosly knit radical left that eventually deteriorated into horrorific side shows like bank robberies, the Black Panther shoot out in L.A., bombings, etc. As a side note a friend of mine shared a plane ride recently with Angela Davis. No more frizzy hair she is now a professor at Berkely. According to my friend She spoke with as much passion and fervor about the subjects as my friend remembered from those wild and wooly days. Especially after drinking a martini in first class. What a difference a day (or several) can make huh? The above article is a good read. Best, Stitch
