„If you remember the Sixties, you weren't there.“
--Grace Slick, Attributed to Slick in Bangkok Babylon (2006) by Jerry Hopkins, p. 217, and elsewhere, this was also attributed to Paul Kantner in The New Yorker, Vol. 67 (1991), Dennis Hopper in Roger Ebert's Movie Home Companion (1992), and in various books to numerous others, including Judy Collins, George Harrison, and comedian Robin Williams.

1. He got out of the Vietnam-era draft, claiming issues with his feet.
2. He went to prestigious for-the-rich, nearly-all-white upper-middle-class colleges, like so many "rebels" on prestigious USA campuses.

10. He's also skeptical of the Pentagon and its generals/genitals and their "plans" for restoring American "influence"/leadership abroad.
