"They came to bring us back to life! Out of the old nightmare, Dallas, Oswald, Ruby, cops, reporters, thru-ways, lies, crises, missiles, heroes, cameras, fear -- all that mishmash, and all of it dead. Look at you. They've brought you back to life. I couldn't -- not after November. Nothing could."
--Robert Hemenway (from the short story "The Girl Who Sang With the Beatles")
