The reason my ages are seem so late is that I, unlike most people in
this pond, feel that there needs to be a certain amount of tension
(Weltschmertz) that builds up before you get the release of JDS. You
have to be sure someone is asking the question and has been searching for
it for some time before you give them the answer. This business about 14
year olds getting what Zooey is talking about is non-sense. How can you
have a Franny crisis in anything but college. And even if you have it
before that you're just starting the crisis. Real Section Men/Women don't
rear their ugly vanilla faces until college (and most of them are standing
in the front of the class).
If you give a man water after his first day in the desert he doesn't
know anything about thirst.
