The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”

ReplyDeleteWell, so long as they get to replace what we have now every 3-4 years and throw the old stuff into a landfill somewhere, what could go wrong?

Cultural capitalism at its' finest...
