Lots of people have at least read World Systems Analysis: An Introduction. That’s popular in both upper division history courses or early grad seminars that focus on methodology. It probably shows up in some economics classes as well, I’d wager.

Painful news. I hate to see this thread pop to the top of the BBS list.

I was a young music listener when The Cars were popular. The funny thing is that Led Zeppelin was by that time, while still popular, a Dinosaur Rock band, and The Cars were a hip MTV band, and Robert Plant was born in 1948 and Ric Ocasek in 1945. Led Zeppelin is just an example. All those dinosaur rock guys just got popular before the ones that followed them did, even though the ones who followed them were often about the same age.

Oh, that’s really sad. Who’d have thought that when they introduced that ferengi kid in DS9 he’d have such an important story arc, brilliantly acted as well.
