"I had a feeling today I'd like to express, which was: It seems, say, the American Indians have been around for 10,000 years; say that mankind has been around-- "Man"; not the monkey but the monkey-become-man-- for 20,000 years... It seems to me that, like, the experiment called Man has not *failed* but has come to a point where, what we call "mankind" and "humanity" and all these catchwords, is gonna have to change. Because you can no longer say, "That was an inhuman act," because the definition of humanity, by its facts, is unlimited. Men can do ANYTHING."
-Peter Bergman, The Firesign Theatre Radio Hour Hour, "The El Droog Symposium," 1970
