Let us admit that we have attended parties where for one brief night a republic of gratified desires was attained. Shall we not confess that the politics of that night have more reality and force for us than those of, say, the entire U.S. Government?

Let us study invisibility, webworking, psychic nomadism--and who knows what we might attain? ↗
