>> A general warning....... when people stop responding to symbols the heavy hand or iron fist of authority must come down.

Isn't that what I already said? Except in my version there was no "must" to it. The "respect for symbols" is a culture that the powerful promote so that they won't get tired from having to exercise their power every time people just don't bend over for them by default.

I will look into the books you suggested...you may benefit from this and others like it. amazon.com
