Being against the Viet Nam war, hearing (and learning) terms like "Ecology," "Women's Liberation," and "Black Power." Creativity seemed to blossom, too, with poets like Michael McClure, William S. Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg-- Dylan. Don't get me started on the music.

Will living in these times birth great music?
