Indeed fads and trends change.

It is fun to see the shifts, especially in the "counterculture area".

Those who loved Apple because it was the underdog and "mysterious only to see it become one of if not the biggest corporation in the world.

I enjoyed seeing occupy members screaming about corporatism while texting on their iphones. On many levels. :-3

Do you either argue or swoon over every post? Why so confrontational? Sharing is one way with you?

No need to answer...it's rhetorical.

I expressly forbid the use of any of my posts anywhere outside of FG (with the exception of the incredibly witty 'get a room already' )posted recently.

Folks who'd like to copy my intellectual work should expect to pay me for it.:-6
