With billows and blasts from choirs and orchesters
Buskers and talkers
Big bands and squawkers,
the Stork Club has retained its qualities of decaying elegance and dwindling significance since the late 1950s.

- & also ! : Thee night to see the Great Conjunction before Jupiter begins to pull out ahead !
Clouds permitting - which is too often the hard part up New Hampshuh here in Winter - & Solstice does mean Winter in the true Technical terms Northern Hemisphere.

No, sadly, only two of the Firesigns are still alive. Peter Bergman died in 2012, Phil Austin in 2015. Philip Proctor and David Ossman are still with us.

good thinking, coel. was on my mac at the time, and it doesn't allow for multiple instances of VLC running at the same time (but had considered doing something similar... too busy stuffing food to try anything else at the time)

i've never heard anything about Mick Hucknall, have only heard one (now 2) simply red song... knew the name for some reason...anyway that quietus page is 10 years old and apparently Hucknall has changed his mind about many of his widely unpopular stances.
