Ah, then we have reached an unbridgeable impasse. For I believe the
deadliest big C isn't Cancer, but Western Civilization. To be "civil" is to
submit to governance by the rules of a "civilization" (read: global
pacification project) that is trending toward the annihilation of Eros, of
the Life Force, of the Other. You can wage your war with WC in anger (ala
Stokely Carmichael) or through absurdity (ie., Abbie Hoffman and Dylan) or
in a careful blending of the two (ie., Pynchon). But for God's sake, man,
at least put up some kind of resistance. Damn.

That's why I *be* all for Ebonics.
