ABSTRACT
In this dialogue, the subjects grind by like boxcars on a two-mile freight. Never do so many intellectual items seem to be handled so quickly—it would be fatal if the cargo were fragile, or the mind of the reader. Done with elegance, such an interview might be appropriate to a President. As done by Paul Krassner and myself it reads, if one may shift the metaphor, like a blow-by-blow of two strong club fighters going sixteen rounds in a gym. Here is the schedule of our rounds: Pacifism, the FBI, the sexual revolution, birth control, literary style, totalitarianism, the new revolutionary, the aesthetics of bombing, masturbation, heterosexual sex, adolescent sex, sexual selection, homosexual sex, the sex of the upper class, and Negro sex. What a fight! Considerately, the last round is devoted to mysticism.
