Hi Khaled/Arlo I wonder about our trash culture, of course it is more popular and democratic and available than culture was in the past and it is pretty trashy (yet far from entirely). But where else would we expect it to begin but at the bottom? Is there hope that once we have finished explorting every voyeuristic sexual possibility and every celebrity reality show we might get a bit bored and start to take an interest in something a littler more challenging?
