My dad always said; "if it ain't Baroque, don't fix it"
He also commented to me that societies idolize or romanticize an age only after it is truly dead. That's why people pretended to be Cowboys in the 50's and Astronauts in the 80's... by 1955 it was O.K. to idealize the cowboy because he was for the most part dead, and by the time every child fantasized about being an astronaut, we weren't sending people up there anymore-

That is a good quote, Alex.
