This morning I drove along a flyover, irritated by the slowly moving
beat-up beige Chevrolet in front of me. Because I was stuck
behind him, I looked at the driver and saw a hunched little old man,
balding with patches of grey hair, wearing huge headphones inside
his car!
Besides wondering what he might be listening to, it also got me to
thinking what we (collectively) might be listening to when we reach
60 or 70 - will we be pulling out Ae's LP5 and telling our
grandchildren how lucky we consider ourselves to have been
around at a time when this was fresh and new?
Or will we have come around to Mozart? Or jazz?
