Sometimes it seems like while I was busy giving bob advice on babble and watching the dwarves and tattoo parlors on tv that something bad was going on outside but I don't I know. It's dark this time of year and I don't have a flashlight. Sometimes I think the fish oil isn't working. Maybe I should go to the med board and ask for antiparanoiac medication suggestions or just take a xanax and close the blinds.
>As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there's a twilight where everything remains seemingly unchanged, and it is in such twilight that we must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness.

When bad things happen to countries the process of change can be likened to the repair of a bridge. The bridge is still in place, it can be used, but bit by bit it is replaced until the entire structure is new. The change is sufficiently gradual to appear unexceptional. War, defeat, revolution, inflation and depression set that off for Germany.
What I have trouble understanding is what were the pre9/11 conditions that set some smally analogous process off in the USA? I have assumed Vietnam, for want of a better explanation. (But then I'm a bleeding heart liberal.)
