OOOOh, yeah, it's good you added the caveat there, I was starting to get Madeleine d'leangel flash backs there; you know, "A Wrinkle in Time". Well, suburban housewives aren't all that dumb, you know. Sometimes I think they are the only ones with time to think... Huggs!
Yeah, it would be way boring if everyone thought and acted the same way. (and like in all good utopian society novels, there would be someone who would be a free thinker and point out to the readers that it is actually a distopian society because there would be an entire sect of underground free thinkers who would be left out of the politics of the whole thing, and one group asserting its force to get people to be living in the "one right way," thus leading to a revolt and again to a society full of war.)

Oh, and I obviously have WAY too much time to think.
Thanks for this!
