A fine day to you. Dr Janson.
When I read the above post, my general
impression was that the final showdown
between the Trinity and the two beasts is
now very close. And it seems that the big
cities are where the rot runs deepest, and
for this reason the cities
will be where the clean-out starts.
Which brings San Francisco to my mind.
"And if you're going
to San Francisco,
Be sure to wear
Some flowers in your hair,
Cos if you're going
To San Francisco,
You're gonna meet
Some gentle people there.."
(The Mammas and the Pappas?)
In the 1960s SF was one of the main stages
upon which we attempted to live out our
understanding of the meaning of the word
"love". And so perhaps it is appropriate
that downtown SF is now rotten in quite a
literal sense.
