I was watching "Blade Runner 2049" a few nights ago and the thing that most intrigued me was that the main character in the film was listening to a few '60s songs. Given that the film was set in 2049, the character likely would have been born sometime in the 2010s, meaning that the '60s were distantly removed from his time. Do you think the '60s will continue to be appreciated for decades to come? Personally, I think the '60s will be remembered as being a pivotal era of change in history, due to the evolution in social customs, values and the progression of pop culture. The Beatles will still be talked about in another 50-100 years, in my opinion. What's your opinion on it?

The 1960s was a time of great social change e.g. abolition of capital punishment in certain countries, the legalisation of abortion, the end of national service, the decriminalisation of attempted suicide and similar. And don't even get me started on the music! Better than anything the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s could ever come up with.
A lot of it went over my head at the time as I was still a child myself. But at least I was there!

Historically, I do think the '60s were a pretty significant decade, more so than the decades before and after so it wouldn't surprise me if it was still remembered in the same way well into the future.

Makes sense to me, Long.
