Marking the French Social Revolution of '68

I caught this on NPR this Morning - It's the 40th anniversary of the Paris 1968 Strike - some great quotes from the story:

Quote:
Campaigning for president last year, Nicholas Sarkozy blamed the legacy of 1968 for leading to intellectual and moral relativism and hedonistic individualism.
or

Quote:
"We experienced utopia, a moment where everyone could live a full and intense life," Weber says. "The watchword was live without pause, enjoy pleasure without restraint."
Now that's a sig line

Viva La France!



Now I'm ready to watch the Dreamers again
