Just to clarify here. When I'm speculating about world events and social matters, It's important to bear in mind that the perspective from which I am viewing the world is that of someone so isolated from the world that my only sources of like input from an outside source is about 4 websites, a couple of 60-year-old television shows and whatever news from the outside world my wife brings in during the hour or so a day we spend together. Other than that, the only human beings I actually come in contact with are the hippies at the reefer store. I stopped watching the news in the mid 1980's and have a completely warped world view based on out-of-focus memories of scraps of conversations I had with my drunken Irish grandfather when I was a child. It's awesome. I understand now.
