After exchanging sideouts, Hart helped the Crimson open up a lead by serving two aces en route to a 10-4 advantage. The Eagles would manage just one more point in the game and seemed surprised by the relentless Crimson attack...
...species has become so well adapted to constant, relentless change that it has lost the ability to see just how weird much of the world has truly become. New things--a male sporting a nose ring, people talking into cell phones on busy street corners between swigs of bottled water--grab our attention and then quickly fade into the wallpaper of contemporary life.

Thus they prolonged the war and added to the human cost they claimed to deplore. Of course, this complaint could be used to discredit dissent in any war, and often has been. Aiding and comforting...
