"If this was 1930, half of you in this audience would not be here.... This is a great age. You are privileged to be alive." During his discussion of technologi- cal advancements, he repeatedly con- trasted the freedoms Americans have with life in the Soviet Union and Red China.

"They are nice people, but they are llmlted In imagi- nation. Too many of them are law- yers." And, Bradbury, anticipating what the audience wanted to hear, talked of space travel and the moon landing.
