The more things change, the more they stay the same :) Thanks for the link UB. Great to see that again. And that's one smart skirt! My friend and I were discussing this exact subject last night at the Mallard while a VU song played. We were lamenting that there was no bold, underground art movement anymore and the days of rock stars hanging out with pop art icons was a thing of the past. Every ounce of burgeoning creativity (or rebellion) is immediately seized upon and before you can blink, there are plush toys. Perhaps we are at a true crossroads where the dissemination of all ideas is so immediate, there is no time to apply value or judgement. I wouldn't necessarily say that kids are worse today than in the past, just that we have found newer, faster, and louder ways in which to shocwcase their "worseness".
