Having become jaded by the abuses of authority, the boomers of North America have torn down the traditional hierarchy within their families and within their communities. What's left is a "cultural flatness," where adults cling to self-absorbed adolescent values, television talk shows have more clout than elders, children are spiritually abandoned to fend for themselves, and in the place of community we have built shopping malls.

 

THIS IS GREAT FOR OA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Has it been determined yet if you are KK? I haven't visited this area of the boards very much, but if it looks like KK, sounds like KK, and smells like KK---it must be KK. Correct me if I'm wrong please...and I don't mind being wrong.
