Well I don't have time to fill out EVERYTHING that you're asking of us.. But I will tell you that my name's Shelly and I'm 17. I think you should mention how the War in Iraq is stimulating hippie culture much like the Vietnam War did, to a lesser extent. That might be an interesting thing to examine.
