This conflict, less intense but still with us today, has its foundations in the 1960s. As the Beatnik, Hippie, and psychedelic

Many were unable to even walk across the water; it was too high for them to touch the floor. It had been raining for three weeks and the Thames over flowed during the middle of the second week, which caused the entire city to be flooded.
