     America will never be destroyed from the outside.
     If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be
     because we destroyed ourselves.

Well, Art is Art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand,
      water is water. And east is east and west is west and

      Now you tell me what you know.
                               -Groucho Marx
