waiting to see a woman who will be in a few minutes and as I am waiting and I being a geek, so I'm reading a great book "The Unwinding," by George Packer and a random person comes up and asks what I'm reading so I tell her and show her the dust cover of the book. She reads a little and says something like, "It looks new age with some old school institution in it too."



All I could say is "Oh."

Btw The Unwinding is a great book... the middle class has been screwed, money controls DC, and things are complex.

Sorry to
