Great article, Ned. I always considered you one of the "ultimate hipsters" from the generation just before mine. Articulate and spot-on, man. I think I was born one generation too late. I was watching a PBS special the other day about the heyday of Greenwich Village culture(50's and 60's), and longed for its return somewhere....anywhere. And I really liked the way you tied jazz music into the soothing of our country's wounded collective soul. We need it now more than ever. Thanks.
