Dead on Alfred.

There ought to be basic yardsticks to any major event or cherished
happening. I am of the belief, as is another close friend that we are
getting shafted in this modernity, in more ways than we can begin to
imagine. It is yet, more of taking, while giving or sharing very little by
our beloved corporates. BTW, no sooner having evolved into an arch
modern, fortunately for my own humnaism I soon understood its scaly side.
And cussedly it would have been better to stay oblivious. However, it does
allow people to appear, however briefly at the same table, and occasionally
sit at it; in turn leading to certain advancements in certain aspects of
being. I still see value to modernity, but not as seen in my observations
of its expressions in the maim-desh.

Perhaps something to do with clashes of internalized ideologies while
practising others that allow one to gain access to exploitative formulae.
Perhaps also, to do in parts with a collective mess up in Broca's and
Wernicke's areas -- aphasia and word salads -- leading to newer and fresher
mediocrities.
