I think Gail has gotten the essence of the '70s. Those who remember them favorably are responding to the positive leftovers of the slowly dying struggles of the '60s. It took some time for it to sink in on those of us who had fought the battles of the '60s to wake up to the fact that people were no longer respnding, that our numbers were shrinking rather than growing

In 1982 a Palestinian poet perhaps perhaps epitomized a world-wide experience when he wrote, "the earth is closing in on us."

^^^^^^^ CB: Of course, 1982 wasn't in the '70's. Reaganism had started, etc.
