Just to tie this whole politico/muso/CSN&Y thing all together:
The very last tune on the most current Crosby/Nash album has probably the most beautiful version of "My Country, 'Tis of Thee" ever recorded. |

Location: Long Island, NY | There's a huge difference between a vocal political debate at a pub and written comments on an internet site. It's the power of the written word. If you say something at a bar, once it's said it's gone and it may not have been heard by everyone there. Once something is posted on a board it remains to be read, re-read, reflected upon, etc. That leads to tempers flaring and the vile acidic remarks that you can view on the rant sites.
This, or any board, cannot be a substitute for open face to face discussions. |
