Well you only have to look at my sig to see that I rate Our Grace.
I read the whole interview and there are other bits as funny as the Tricky Dicky episode. As something of an ageing Hippy myself, I easily identify with her irreverence for any and all authority. Have to say I was just an itsy bit disappointed at her apparent credulity about US 'Democracy' though. She seems to really believe that there is a substantive difference between Reps and Dems.
