Coke has been advertising in New York’s Times Square for 97 years, but never as bigand boldas it is now. Its new billboard, touted as the world’s first 3-D robotic sign, will hover over the tourist mecca. Composed of more than 1,500 LED screens, its content is programmed by time of day. For instance, around lunchtime, messages might tout Coke and meals. It’s a far cry from the 1960s, when Coke’s circular sign simply stated “The Pause that Refreshes.”

So, very valuable early training.”

I consider Anarchism the most beautiful and practical philosophy that has yet been thought of in its application to individual expression and the relation it establishes between the individual and society. Moreover, I am certain that Anarchism is too vital and too close to human nature to ever die. It is my conviction that dictatorship, whether to the right or to the left, can never work– that it never has worked, and that time will prove this again, as it has been proved before. Considered from this point, a recrudescence of Anarchist ideas in the near future is very probable. When this occurs and takes effect, I believe that humanity will at last leave the maze in which it is now lost and will start on the path to sane living and regeneration through freedom.
– Emma Goldman
