“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
―Philip Freneau

And by a prudent flight and cunning save A life which valour could not, from the grave. A better buckler I can soon regain, But who can get another life again?

Your passion for mew-SICK-al EXCREMENT never ceases to disturb me, FJ.
As surely you must know by now, I think a lot of YOU, ersonally, yet there is absolutely NO ROOM in MY life for what-I-KNOW-to be out-and-out TRASH thatcontributes only to the socital degeneration which BOTH of us decry at regular intervals.
Sounds of this sort are capable of turning even the most refined, beautifully decorated gilded Baroque concert hall or aristocreatic salon into a virtual TORTURE CHAMBER.
“I’m sure I ’m not Ada,” she said, “for her hair goes in such long ringlets, and mine doesn’t go in ringlets at all; and I ’m sure I can ’t be Mabel, for I know all sorts of things, and she, oh! she knows such a very little! Besides, she’s she, and I’m I, and—oh dear, how puzzling it all is! I ’ll try if I know all the things I used to know.
Let me see: four times five is twelve, and four times six is thirteen, and four times seven is—oh dear! I shall never get to twenty at that rate! However, the Multiplication Table don’t signify.. - Lewis Carroll, "Alice's Adventures Underground"
btw - How did you like the quaternion in the linked video?

the bongo player is really missing the time signature shifts from 9/8 to 8/8 to 7/8. Lateralus is not for amateur percussionists.

...that's the problem with 'covers'...
I did like the horns, though.

Not into numbers, Franco? You should let your hair down once in a while.
