Those two spots are among the darkest of our whole civilization--pardon me, our whole culture {an important distinction, I've heard}--which might sound like a hoax, or a contradiction, but that {by contradiction, I mean} is how the world moves: not like an arrow, but a boomerang. {Beware of those who speak of the spiral of history; they are preparing a boomerang. Keep a steel helmet handy.}
