Can’t stop here..it’s bat country(1960’s)
The following quote is from HST’s masterpiece “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas”-it is in reference to the nineteen sixty’s counterculture movement, it was written in the early seventies while the failed revolution was still fresh in the mind of the masses; back when the book was first published the reaction would be much more poignant, but for those who were alive during or cared to research it afterwards the poignancy is still as potent. ”So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look west. And with the right kind of eyes, you can almost see the high water mark, that place where the wave finally broke…and rolled back.”
