The email program at UCSC gives the score of 3.84 (medium spam) to my incoming messages, because it considers “the date is grossly in the future.” As in La jetée, a favorite movie. And would we ever reach the future if bridges to it were not built by politicians and image-makers. Thank god Clinton had the forethought to build one to the twenty-first century. Bloavez mat d’an holl. Happy new year.
