>>>For all you youngsters who do not personally remember the 60s, on the issue of Radical Chic (and for pretty much anything he's ever written) I highly recommend Tom Wolfe's "Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers"

>>Never mind the youngsters. Robin Williams got it right: If you can remember the 60s, you weren't really there.

>I remember the 60s pretty clearly up until about 64 - then somewhat drunkenly to about 68 - then fell down the rabbit hole. Remember 90 to the present resonably well (except where I put my car keys half hour ago and the name of somebody I'm talking to on the phone ... )
I'm somewhat the same, except that drink has never really been my thing, so I can honestly say I've never been drunk, but I fell down the rabbit hole maybe a year or two before you. On the other hand, I guess I didn't really 'fall' though; I was pushed (gently).
The car keys mention reminds me of the fact that I'm pretty good for being able to find things. The only time I ever seem to be unable to find what I'm looking for is after I've put whatever it is somewhere special so I won't forget where it is.
