I was listening to the CBC 1 program "Commotion" where they were discussing Canada's music awards. One of the commentators used these two phrases: "Jetson-realistic" and "super-iconic."
Once in the early days of the breakout of rap I told my academic adviser -- who had been an important dean in the turbulent days 1968-72 that soon it would be impossible for my generation -- the rock and roll generation -- to understand what younger people were talking about.
He gave a small smile and said "Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch."
