i meant the 60's isn't only the war between the US and Vietnam ... it was a major thing, but not the only thing.
and personally i'd want to live in Britain or France in the 60's and definitely not in the US.
and being the #1 power in the world doesn't make the US the only country or culture in the world ... i assure you we weren't thinking about the hippies, the flower power or the vietnam in the middle east ... still even here, the 60's were the best years in the last millennium [musically and culturally, overall] , and not only in the past century.
