    Dave: Since we’ve hijacked this thread to music, what are your thoughts about David Byrne (Talking Heads)?

    BTW, I agree completely about Patrick Byrne. He’s not only a charlatan, but he’s also an agent provocateur and has engaged similar discredited characters (such as Judd Bagley) to spread his lies and propaganda (and that’s exactly what he’s doing, propagandizing people).

    Have you read Farhad Manjoo’s work on “the post fact society”? Very interesting stuff.

    I don’t really have an opinion on David Byrne. Odd, creative guy, obviously. I was never a big Talking Heads fan, but I didn’t dislike them. Byrne did an interesting album with Brian Eno called “My Life in the Bush of Ghosts” back in the early-80s that’s kind of cool.

    My preferences from the 80s were along the lines of The Church, The Chameleons (UK), The Buzzcocks and The Clash. And almost anything on the Creation label.

    There’s a great band from NYC called Interpol that rehashes that sound.

    Don’t know a thing about Mr Manjoo. I’ll try to run across him.

    Patrick Byrne is a charlatan and blowhard of immense proportions.[/quote]

    Charlatan blowhards rule Wall Street and arguably the USG? Who are you kidding? If that is not blatantly obvious to everybody then you mush have been in a coma for the last 5 years.

    And really, what does that have to do with his information regarding the BS and LB take down?

    music related intra-thread hijack query; all of my life, I have hated jazz; then i recently started listening to some miles davis and I am completely hooked, obsessive and will listen to nothing else right now. Is this due to aging, the economy, or some independent unknown factor? will i pull out of this or is this the endgame?
