Martin LeFevre - Meditations: Is This A 1989 Moment?

The year 1989 signifies not just the end of the Cold War, but the opportunity for humankind to move in a new direction. That window of opportunity only lasted a few months, before the hellish days in Russia and the halcyon days in America ushered in Putin and 9.11, with all that followed.
