The call of nostalgia


Sara uses her cell phone in a phone booth. We just had dinner at the Pedal Pusher Diner, where they play Buddy Holly songs and serve soda fountain specials, like a "Brown Cow" ... a Coca-Cola, ice cream and chocolate syrup. What will evoke nostalgia from these times fifty years from now? The iPod? Abu Ghraib prison pictures on the cover of Newsweek? Shreck?
