Thanks, and the same to you! As to your comment: exactly. This is what I was getting at. To take one (perhaps controversial) example, I sometimes get the impression that people think we defeated Fascism in WWII and made the world safe for democracy. Those people who do believe that don't seem to realize (1) that Fascism continued right into the 1990s in Europe, (2) that it exists today in some unexpected places, and (3) that it is, if anything, gaining power and influence. Democracy is an ideal, something no society has achieved, IMHO. But it's something we should keep striving for. Just my two cents, of course!
