        Dystopia is an imaginary place which is depressingly wretched and
the people lead a fearful existence.  Which is how the people lived in
George Orwell's novel "1984" lived.  Also the novel where the slogan "Big
Brother is watching" came from.

        OK Larry,  maybe it's a result of all the lead fumes from when I
was, in my youth, a plumber's helper, but I can't find dystopian in my
dictionary.  What's it mean?

        ps School's seem to have dropped it, but 1984  is required reading
for my children.
