As I said earlier:

It was really an accomplishment of ‘the other 1960s’ (the ‘Mad Men’/Kennedy era, really an extension of the 1950s), of civilised people capable of the required discipline and focus. ‘The ’60s’, which Charley has defined as ‘at university between 1968 and 1972’, didn’t accomplish much of anything.
