So does it all comes to some kind of electronic "bread and circuses" (ipads and ipods) and the current version of the apocryphal answer, Zhou En-lai is supposed to have given to the question: 'What do you think of the French Revolution?'
Answer: 'It is too early to tell.'"

I have often thought there was something essentially autistic about ipods and "personal" music devices. Maybe that is their great socio-political advantage today, in so far as they create consumers with political attention deficit disorder, AND generate cashflow for someone in asia. In the 60's a transistor radio delivered a rallying cry as well as advertisement, and was made closer to home.
