Lompoc, California's utopian, no-alcohol-allowed beginnings, including teetotaler terrorist acts against the evils of SALOONS are told to us by Summers. Plus, guess the movie quote of the week and find out how accurate the official Ghoul's Guide to Santa Barbara Magic 8-Ball is when we ask it a control question. Side notes include other utopian communities (thanks to Sarah Vowell's coverage of the Oneida community in her book Assassination Vacation), a UK suffragist [sort of] tie in via Erika Rappaport's book, Shopping for Pleasure, and a plug for Boardwalk Empire (especially the theme song).
