  1. Once more I'll post the thought behind this thread. It is the responsibility of the poster to come up with a line that can easily be recognized in order to name a song. It was my intetnion to combine nostalgia and songs. Basically have someone think "yeah I remember that" That's all. there was not supposed to be any stumping or posting of lyrics that no one would recognize unless you went to all of your artists concerts. Sorta a low-brow "Name that tune". What you may think is easily recognized, others may not. There are no other rules. It doesn't have to have radio play as "name that tune" does

    If you think you have a line from a song that makes it easily recognizable. Then post it once you have answered the previous question. The first post was an example ."There She was just a walking down the street". Easily recognizable for our age group ( those over 45 ). those that choose to participate gives out another line , which should be easily recognizable to your other posters. For instance " Where the whiskey drowns, and beer chases" which might be obscure to people that only listen to Bach or Beethoven (but then they would not be playing this silly game.) It's a light-hearted version of "Name that tune"

    That's all

  2. Thinking outside of conventional thought means you are in a cult. whether that defines "rightness or error" has nothing to do with truth. Just because a majority or a large percentage of people believe something, has no bearing on what is reality. I'm not defending what was done under TWI. but that argument holds no water. "If no one believes believes it, it's still the word" Liberties taken with that quote. It supposes that there is a definable "WORD" if not it's just the meanderings of dis-illusioned people.

  4. I think it's determined by the plus or minuses that are at the bottom of each post. If you spend a lot of time in the basement ( Politics and Tacks) your reputation would probably be very good or pi$$ poor. basically it's a popularity contest.

  5. Saw them once in concert at Wittenberg probably about 71 or so. Worse concert I ever went to. Thank God it was only 5 dollars with Student ID. They were too high to even realize they had guitars in their hands.

  10. I liked Michiu Kaku's (theoretical Physicist from SUNY)take on this. Last week he was asked about it and he said not a good idea unless you want radioactive tarballs in your swimming pool.

    And on the lighter side<br>
