Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from January 13, 2023 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

The reason 911 was adopted in the US instead of 999 for emergency calls was that with pushbutton phones it was thought too easy to accidentally hit a number three times in a row. The reason they didn't adopt 911 but 999 in the UK was because it was so easy to hit the same number 3 times in a row in a rush.

Which is more acceptable: false positives or false negatives?
