Thanks for that comprehensive report. Sickening about the sniper shooting the grandmother as a child waved a white flag.

There is a huge gap between what humans are experiencing in their precious lives and the schemes and lies of power.

Awesome sound room. I want to send you my favorite version of a bee gees song. To love somebody. No no Janice Joplin, not Raberta Flak. There both awesome.

This one might surprise you.

"You don't know what it's like to love somebody the way that I love you."

(Major guilt trip, eh?) I always dug Roberta Flak's version.

I am listening to this off the laptop into a small single-ended 6EM7 tube amp into BD-Pipes speakers I built long ago, full range tuned-quarter-wave-transmission-line speakers, a pleasant and intimate nearfield listening arrangement with U-R-there soundstage and imaging, even with bit-reduced internet playback... which is all in my human mind , but this was long my deep-hobby.

Blinken thinkin' we still have real armed forces, when it seems quite clear we are defenseless. Austin dead or on deaths doorstep imo, jab damage throughout the troops.

Not all that sympathetic considering how the conflict began.
