Wired News: What If They Gave a War...?:
Wherein the author blames pop culture and self-involvement in the lack of student protests. 'Cmon, do you really believe that students weren't just as self-involved in the 60's? That there were many who demonstrated just to get laid? Of course there were! I'd contend that the issue is that popular culture has synonomized "cool" with "apathy". You can blame James Dean in Devil Without a Cause for that, if you'd like.

I'd say that "apathy == cool" trend is a cause for many of our problems...

I'm sorry, but given that schedule, I cannot make it. Too many things, and I need to return home immediately after my event lets out at around 3:30
