“……You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning…… .......And that, I think that was the handle- the sense of inevitable victory over forces of old and evil.

Thompson .....(A homage to Hunter S. Thompson- to the man, the genius, and the perpetual trouble maker)....”
