Summary: Illusion vs. reality in America today. Getting lost on Groundhog Day inspires a reflection by K.D. on S.I. Hayakawa's maxim, "The map is not the territory." The "map" of reality handed to us by the corporations and politicians falsely depicts the lay of the land (so to speak).

Plus--making similar points--a selection from a Virtual Renderings audio collage. Includes commentary by Woody Harrelson, Chris Hedges, and Jordan Maxwell and a timely song by Jackson Browne.

Credits: Virtual Renderings collage is titled, "Ponderings From Within Leviathan." The complete (56-minute) version is here: http://www.radio4all.net/index.php/program/74106 .

"New World Notes" is produced under the auspices (Latin for "resigned sighs") of WWUH-FM, a community service of that beacon of light in darkest Connecticut, the University of Hartford.

Notes: Originally broadcast in February 2014. Files downloaded from the links, below, are identified as NWN #310.
