The city - as the theater of experience, the refuge, the hiding place - has, in turn, been replaced by an abstraction, the fast lane. In the fast lane, the passive observer reduces everything - streets, people, rock lyrics, headlines - to landscape. Every night holds magical promises of renewal.

Everything there involves 100% use of technology and expertise to make it, and nothing we make - including space exploration vehicles and so on - is complex. Everything we make is complicated. Nothing is self-renewing.

“[Earlier this month, the House debated a Republican-backed plan to establish English as the official language of the United States. In addition, several Republicans are gearing up for a renewed assault on affirmative action programs.] This definitely makes it harder for us, ... These wedge issues have created the false impression in some Hispanic communities that they should stick with the Democrats.”

“You must remember to compare benefits versus costs. For the foreseeable future, the only affordable alternatives are coal, natural gas, oil or nuclear.
