Yeah, I've read it, but it was in 1993. ISTR discontents referred to the mental pain and anguish daily life oppressed upon the middle class because they must resist their baser needs and desires. Reading over my class notes from the time seem to indicate that's correct. (Yes, I still have them.)

The fact that you have your 1993 class notes handy can only be described as disturbing.

Why do I always get the image in my head of you two doing an Abbet and Costello inspired Vaudeville route to an audience of cruise ship retirees every time I see you reach for the catch phrase?

Now I'm not going to be able to get that image out of my head.
