*ahem*  And most of the people that were peace and love-ites back then
are now board members, ceo's, and the like (or were during the wonderful
'80s/'90s).

Something went wrong somewhere along the line.  If the generation back
then was so strong in it's ability to change the political direction of
the world, why has that strength vanished as those people have moved
into the age and the positions of power themselves?

It's not all "the youth of today" that have stopped caring.

(my guess:  it's hard to be a revolutionary when you're comfortably
well-off, or when you're working 9 to 5 to stay comfortable.  And it's
really easy to end up "bum up, head down" doing the best you can to keep
your little corner of the world right, and lose sight of the big picture
- the stuff that used to matter.)
