They took a huge "outdoor bowl" audience into their hands and made it feel like an intimate occasion.<BR/><BR/>1968 was also the year Andy Warhol got shot, we were just reminded this evening, by the latest Ken Burns documentary on American television. He watched Robert Kennedy get assassinated and buried on television while he was delirious in the hospital himself. What an ugly time.<BR/><BR/>And yes, the Vietnam War was profoundly evil on every level imaginable, as is the Iraq Invasion/Occupation today.sfmikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17819723581695521723noreply@blogger.com
