CJ, re: Are those pieces of recent history so obscure? I don't expect them to feel it in their gut, you have to live through that stuff to get that. But they don't even seem to have an intellectual appreciation for it... I know exactly what you mean. Younger people seem to treat these potential situations as intellectual abstracts, not concrete probabilities. It's as if at least the statue quo is guaranteed, and change for the worse is not possible. And some of those on the right seem to think the US is infallible and it is our birthright to be irresponsible without consequences. Frankly, you look back on the last, say, 20 years, and things have been very tranquil (9/11 excepted). Maybe that's where the arrogance comes from? John
