Chazz: Appreciate your answer. It does clarify things. Oh, yes.
Chronologically, there will always be "new" folks. People grow old, they die, and new ones arise. I understand that. Even the methods they use may change. Mandella is a good example. He changed mid-course in his dealings w/apartheid. I guess my point was that there have always been contrarians. Some old, some new.
"Invictus" is a great piece of writing. Stimulating. I have read that Henley was influenced by Whitman's writing (e.g. "O' Captain, My Captain")
