Chicago seems to be currently controlled by Mayor Daley, the son of the Mayor at the time of the '68 Riots. Daley I was supposed to have called Senator Rubicoff (D, Connecticut), a "Yid" across the Convention Floor but those who believe in the existence of the Illuminatus conspiracy are convinced that he actually yelled a sarcastic "Evige Blumenkraft", or "Eternal Flower-Power". This is supposed to have some internal meaning to the adepts of the Illuminati but it misses me by a mile, though I did get to hear Joplin and Slick at the Free Concerts in Golden Gate Park earlir that year, and there was a lot of talk about "flower power" in the City, back in the Longago.
