I'm just old enough to remember signs like the one in the black and white photo in the composite below. I didn't understand it then or now, but I do recall it.
Now, the second one, the one in color...the "social distancing is communism"one...
In a word, huh?

Please check out my new book, Padre, a meditation on mortality, grief, and joy, based on the lives and deaths of two of the most amazing and unconventional people I ever met, my mother and father.

About me: I’m a writer and former journalist who has published material on everything from computers to the Jazz Age. (Among my small claims to fame is that I interviewed Steve Jobs just after that talented if complicated man got kicked out of Apple, and just before the company’s Board came begging him to come back.)
