One of my favorite quips from the very quotable Riley Quinn is that "leftists are cursed with object-permanence" - that is, we actually remember what just happened and use it to think about what's happening now.

A lot of those deep archives never see use, but there's a surprising number of leading indicators buried in the stuff that happened in years gone by.
