There was much genuine love and generosity, openness and tolerance.

True. It would be nice, though, to find some way to combine these qualities with at least a moderate degree of productivity. A sub-society that is at root parasitic is not in a good position to spread its virtues.

>Beg pardon, but aren't you much too young to know much experiential about hippie ways?<

By about ten years - but certainly not too young to read about'm, or hear stories told. I hear you implying that without firsthand experience - I am not a serious discussion partner. I know that you are an avid student of history, (some of which happened before even you were born!) (nyuk) so I would be surprised if you intended to imply that. I make no claims to being right - in fact I welcome discussion - but please don't dismiss me because I can't have been there. My clumsiness with a brush does not a priori disqualify me as an art critic.
George Bush, a hippie? Not hardly!! Too old for one. Too thoroughly meshed in the Establishment for another. The career track from Army aviator to DCI would not tolerate a hippie! There's more to hippiedom than buying bellbottoms and voting for Humphrey imho.
