perspective

Ely: I am looking at a comic page scan
Ely: where Dick and Roy and Lian have gone to Ireland
Ely: because Roy is kind of looking for his heritage so he can give it to Lian, basically
Ely: and Dick says : "Another difference between us. I know my roots -- back for many generations. Circus performers. Acrobats. Clowns. The Graysons go all the way back to eighteenth century England."
Ely: ...and part of me goes "that's not that far back, Dick"
Tai: yeh really
Tai: but remember, in America fifty years is a long time
Tai: (in Europe, fifty miles is a long distance ;3)
Ely: and technically that is generations

(We're pretty sure she's quoting soemthing, but not what. Unless it's Eddie Izzard.)

Inability to give up once I start something and a reference librarian for a mother(who trained me well in the use of search terms, quotations and reducing criteria) can get me far in this sort of thing. Takes a lot of time, though. And Crushing when it doesn't work, though. ^^;
