The whole discussion has gone too political for me.  I'm a political 
extremist on most issues, sometimes with the left, sometimes with the 
right, but--good grief--I've taught high school kids from the projects 
who are more affluent than I, with their I-pods, expensive sneakers, 
etc.  So I can't be the kind of sentimentalist I perceive Blake to have 
been (a lot more understandably than most current leftists).
