I really wouldnt have it in any other era, as romantic I feel about the late 60s.
I would have loved it then too, but Honestly I would miss the internet.
I feel like we live in interesting times and that's largely how shall I say exceptional in the sense that most interesting periods in history have been ones filled with rather extraordinary levels of violence, like wars, especially the big ones like World war 2.
We are probably the first period in history that although it has wars is relatively peaceful and yet interesting at the same time.
as a history nerd I really cannot think of a chapter of history where it's ever been peaceful and yet interesting... that whole chinese proverb "may you live in interesting times" ... supposed to be a curse...
alas...
