Maybe we should try to be a little less blase over the ability to be able to read books and newspapers; after all, in some countries and/or certain periods of history, this seemingly innocent pastime would have got you locked up in prison or worse.
Having said that though, I believe anyone with a set of Gary Glitter albums ought to be locked up or worse.
....better say something vaguely political....er..it's obvious that the current brand of political choices available in the west are entirely hegemonic in character, in the Gramanscian sense of the word, and that everyone really knows that true power belongs to the faceless,monolithic corporations that control the media and consumer utilities...um..blah blah...er..something else about the Arabs and the Jews and American demand for oil..
