“... For all our alarm, it is clear that the religious right is responding to a real hunger in our society... a deep-seated yearning for stable values... When conservative Christian groups talk of failures in our educational system, the erosion of our moral standards, and the waste of young lives, they are addressing real and legitimate concerns... Among secularists, the aversion toward discussion of moral values, let alone religion, can reach absurd extremes.” RealChristianYoungValuesReligiousMoralClearGroupsWasteStandardsConcernHungerConservativeEducationalExtremesAbsurdDiscussionOur SocietyYearningStableAlarmsRespondingAversionEducational SystemMoral ValuesErosionYoung Life Author:Norman Lear

If they want to improvise around a theme,which is the essence of jazz, they should learn from the master. He never wastes a note, and he knows where every note is going and when to bring it back.
