One of my favorite thought experiments is imagining being able to bring someone forward from history, and see his reaction to modern times. Showing Ben Franklin a modern home, or showing Gutenberg a library.

Wouldn't it be lovely to see Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois, and his reaction to Obama's election?

If you have a moment, look through all the editorial cartoons. The cartoonists, not normally a swoony bunch, have put together some of the most uplifting cartoons I have ever seen. I choked up over a couple of them.
