54. "not because we knew better ... but because we sensed better"

This is resonating for me.
There has been so much going on that is continually chipping away at what we once were or thought ourselves to be, yet that isn't something that gets the attention or that you can even say is the point, yet we sense is not right.

One that struck me last week is how in the flurry of stories about the wiretaps, the phrase "secret court" gets used as casually as "summer day." Of course, I'm very concerned about the main issue of * stomping all over the 4th Amendment, but when did having a "secret court" become ok and normal and something that's not even a point of concern or contention?
