Hippie bashing history lessons

June 5th, 2007

I wonder if these folks will actually read their own quotes and wonder how hypocritical they sound.

Do people really get more conservative as they age, or are they inclined to simply ignore history (including their own)? If the latter is the case, the web is going to change all that for the next generation. Blogs, MySpace pages, Google “Street View,” yada yada, are going to make it so.

Everyone will be telling you exactly how much of a hippie you really were.
