In the 60s and 70s, you could get by on very little money. And, so, people had time. I mean it was kinda like a bubble or just a brief passage in time when there was so much prosperity in America that if you lived simply you could survive on very little. So people had time to explore things and learn new things.
Lloyd Kahn from this video.
"Where are we going?" he asked as I helped him put on his shoes.
"Nowhere, "we're just walking."

Car Theft for Kids
For kids ages 8–14 with an adult
Offered Wednesday, July 20 – 1-3 pm
Thursday, July 21 – 1-3 pm and 4-6 pm
Walker Art Center, Minneapolis
Info: here
Join us for a hands-on workshop for parents, children and teens where participants will learn to break into a car, hotwire it, and escape from its trunk.
For most kids (and adults), modern cars are simply these gleaming, aggressive-faced jellybeans that house air-conditioning units and MP3 players while they idle in traffic. But underneath their shiny surface lurks all manner of exciting machinery that needs some demystification. That’s where we come in. In this class, we’ll focus on a few key aspects of cars while learning a bit about the physics and mechanics behind how it all works. This is a hands-on workshop, with an actual car to break in and out of. Taught by car historian and inventor Jason Torchinsky, who has already successfully guided at least six children in Los Angeles towards future grand theft auto. Pre-registration required; call 612.375.5812.
