Through a bong, darkly
A new book argues that the '60s counterculture achieved nothing of lasting importance. So why does the era continue to fascinate us?
By Gary Kamiya [2008-04-09]

  • Sick to death...

    I'm sick to death of hearing about the 60's... Part of the reason for the polarization of politics in the here and now is that our boomer politicians won't let go and are still fighting the same stupid battles and making the same tired old arguments... We need our elders to start focusing on the here and now and stop reminicing about the damned 60's. I think a lot of good came out of the 60's, but I agree that it's run it's course and is mainly just a consumer driven myth at this point. It's over... GET OVER IT!
