Well! I can smile again! This is a great read...uncannily entertaining in its version of past and future history and in its offering of some hope for the world. I love the use of phrases such as "Bush the Younger" and "fundamentalists without their fundamentals".

Thanks for providing this uplifting clip, invictus. I needed it.
