Okay skating over the fact that he would be well over a hundred by now, it IS conceivably possible that Lewis could still be alive today. What do you think he would have made of the decades between his death and this time? To be honest it's maybe better he died when he did cos I can't see him having thought much of the whole hippie movement, the seventies drug culture and the eighties greed thing. Do you think he would have been saddened at what has happened to society in the past forty years? Would he have felt out of place? Might he have found anything to like and admire in these cultures?
