Book, speaker, who spoken to.
In the 60’s, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

I'm not sure if that is a guess or not.

It's Anya to Sterol, in 'Magic Engineer'.
It's a metaphor of human bloody existence, a dragon. And if that wasn't bad enough, it's also a bloody great hot flying thing.

possibly Dayalya's (sp?) father (or other relative, or herself, or other druid) speaking to Justen in the Order war.

Or someone explaining to a/some young reclucian(s) why iron is imported.

on the right track?

PS: is it me, or is MK's avatar dead - it's bothering me a lot.
