Thanks, Carolyn. I can’t wait to see the movie now.

Good article Ernie, there is a better world out there with balance and harmony, I believe in it as well… By the way, I liked that “Pleasantville” movie for the comfortable Utopia it was trying to portray. But Life isn’t perfect and racism does exist in America, and elsewhere.

I just recently wrote a piece, “Thoughts Rising from Tucson’s Flowers of Spring” that paints a picture of the 40′s and 50′s http://obrag.org/?p=22454 and shows that citizens of Pleasantville didn’t generally address serious social problems.
I’d love to take your class.
