Its premise would have interested me, being a fan of the films ZARDOZ and LOGAN'S RUN, movies which your description brought to mind. <br /><br />I've been reading your 'blog for awhile and thoroughly enjoying it. I'm 44 and my formative years of pop culture fall pretty much within the years you cover.
