I'm sorry to have given such short thrift to Jeff's hard-earned insights to his experience with identity theft. All seriousness aside I just want to say that I now see the magnitude of his offerings. Indeed we as a society are doomed if we don't recogize those times when our behavior is shaped by the mind-numbing pervasiveness of mass culture. <br /> What brings me to this "mea culpa"? This morning while driving to work I hit a godawful pothole, and what was my response? "Egad!" That's what I shouted aloud! "Egad!" <br /> What the hell is wrong with me? How deep is the brainwashing that I've been subjected to? How may comic books before the synapse was complete to insure that when I hit such a pothole my response would be, "Egad". And more importantly was it really my choice to have read so many comic books? <br /> Jeff, my sympathies for your own personal trauma and the resulting liturgy involving coffee and oatmeal that you were forced to witness.
