cookies.When I moved from New York City at age 7 (1952) to Bayonne, New Jersey, I was supposed to go into the second grade. Sadly, the first grade in New York City schools at that time did not cover spelling or even the alphabet.

Cafe Wha? Greenwich VillageWhen I was fourteen years old (1959) I used to hang around in the Village spending most of my nights explaining the origins of the Universe to a small crowd who would gather at the Cafe Wha? to hear me. I vaguely recall my lectures, basically rehashing theories I read in physics books and embellishing those with my imagination at the time. What I do remember quite clearly is that almost every week some listener would ask me if I had read "The Fountainhead."

I went to Catholic school for the fourth grade and it was then that I made my Communion (yes I am an Atheist Jew who made Communion). I tried to get out of it by reminding my teacher, Sister Melody, that I was Jewish; I still had to go, according to her, "Don't worry - it's good for you." Earlier in the year I tried the same tactic to get out of Catechism classes and attending mass.

In our primitive past, and I am only going back a mere few centuries, people did not tolerate other people's culture or beliefs. It was enough that you were different by only a scintilla of coloring or hairstyle or language or smell.

My father grabbed me by my shoulders, and here I was ready to get an especially wicked beating, judging by the redness of his face, the bulging in his eyes, and the fact he was losing his voice, and then, quietly, with restrained agony, gently told me that this particular flag was a symbol of a great evil that destroyed almost every single living relative of ours.
