I haven’t been able to force myself to watch more than a few minutes at a time. And it doeesn’t matter which bit one looks at or when. No matter who the speaker or what the topic, or how well constructed and well delivered the presentation there is only pissing and moaning – never an idea for trying anything different to deal with any problem.

It turns my stomach to watch a full-scale and completely open and approved demonstration of the worship of form over substance. It I were an insider looking at the Democratic Party I would be feeling ever more depressed while watching an organization I once cared about entering the final stage – the Beyond Recovery stage – of “Gaining Speed and Losing Altitude”.
