I was harvesting "one-liners" from my long-and-short notebooks when I came upon this from Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young : "...no time to stay the same" . It struck me .
I have theorized that the Contents of some 70's Songs hold Secrets {and therefore KEYS} to Use in this the absolute BEST of The WORST Times . "M-M-My Generation" experienced the War-Mongered* Gov, as a VIOLATION of "The Will of the People". Indeed, LBJ resigned because he felt that he had NO >>>Support<<< from over HALF the Nation . Except for SOME of Senior Year -- EVERY DAY WAS A PROTEST DAY --- the War in Vietnam was considered a GROTESQUE ANATHEMA not only to Students but to the General Electorate who bemoaned the loss of their Sons and Daughters to the Mil .
It was WAR and We KNEW it to be WAR . We DEMANDED Change because we KNEW it was "...no time to stay the same" .
