Why did it take him that long to figure out what bothered him about "Where Have All The Flowers Gone"? Answer, could he have been so unaware of himself for that long. It finally dawned on him "as light dawns on Marblehead". I believe Pete was taking a stance & making a point. Did Greil take an opposing position or just think that the whole world felt like himself. I guess that he himself must be rock right & the generations of singers that sing folk music must fading voices of ghosts that are just blowing in the wind. What an overgeneralization. Barry
