when one is stuck on the time track it may seem pretty difficult to envision a future. In politics this is called "reactionary" or "conservative." These mean any resistance to change even when it is an improvement. The bad old days seem to be the good old days to such people. Yet the old days will not come again. One has to make the new days good. (HCO PL 11 Aug 74)
