"Guest 11:49 I remain unconvinced." What is it, exactly, that you are "unconvinced" of?

As for it being the U.S. flag "blowin' in the wind", I go further than McGrath: that interpretation is BEYOND bizarre ...

As for the views of Pete Seeger et al ... it's a well-known part of the Dylan story that he turned out something of a disappointment to the lefties, by popularizing such images as that of answers blowin' in the wind, as opposed to answers being spelled out in political pamphlets ... Unfortunately, for those who share the outlook of those particular detractors, Dylan was and remains a poetic - well, some would say 'genius', and who am I to quibble?
