timetraveller, i think your sentiments really hit home to most and are well articulated...while i can't say i'm of the If I Had A Hammer generation or a guy who ever got fueled over protest tunes, it's important that various artists spoke for the masses in those turbulent times...actually, i suppose they've never really left us, just many of the artists...i've not heard anything of a public memorial
