The contradictory remarks of politicians are forgotten; the more asinine predictions of pundits are buried with mercy.
Not enough attention is paid to the negative side of fashion. Great effort is exerted to make people look smart, but somebody should face the fact that a lot of people never will be smart, and that they should be given some assistance in maintaining their fascinating dowdiness.
