	♥ 3:36am Paulo AD: Indeed it's does
	3:42am Don in Tampere: There was quite a brouhaha when the current leader of Labour, Keir Starmer, quoted Thatcher against BoJo. Though he didn't directly praise MT, it did point out how much New Labour looks like Old Tory.

	4:05am Don in Tampere: Brian, I know what you mean. under Eisenhower . a Republican - top tax rates were around 90%, and now even the progressive Dems don't dare go over 50. Also very clear is the chasm between the US and Europe; even European media called Sanders "radical left" because he advocated for things like free education and universal health care, things that not even conservatives call into question over here.
	4:06am HyperDose: Best version of this song I've heard. Much better not having all the bg noise with the live versions.

	4:40am LiXiviated Life: Everything seems to have fallen apart since David B left
	4:42am Brian D: Does seem that way, Lix.
	4:46am LiXiviated Life: The image of a sea of people Trampling one another Manic and driven by some Fanaticism Seems to pretty well capture the current Zeitgeist
	4:52am LiXiviated Life: A band named Antietam a few minutes ago Antietam ? Really?? Maybe the bloodiest battle of the Civil War and someone thinks “Hey guys I got an idea for a Cool band name”
	♥ 4:55am _Ike_: Good luck to Mrs. Currents in her medical adventure! May the falafenyl (or whatever meds) shine upon her harmoniously.
	4:55am LiXiviated Life: Not that it matters but this makes me less hopeful about Everything
