WFMU: Continental Subway with David Dichelle: Playlist from September 11, 2018

Listener comments!
	4:05pm northguineahills: Wilmington, NC will be lucky to have signs like that in such pristine condition Friday morning.
	4:08pm David D: True, NGH, I wasn't even thinking of that.
	4:09pm David D: Everyone stay safe!
	4:10pm northguineahills: I can't help it, I'm a weather nerd (used to teach it at CUNY-Hunter College) www.windy.com...
	4:12pm David D: That map sure makes it look scary.
	4:13pm northguineahills: To relax b/tn classes as an undergrad, I would draw weather maps. complete w/ my predictions of precipitation and isotherms (over the USA Today map). I was/am weird.
	4:14pm David D: Sounds not too far off from something I might do, not that I ever did that per se.
	4:15pm northguineahills: well, that, and like maps...
	4:15pm northguineahills: (making maps right now)
	4:17pm Webhamster Henry: That a nice map : similar to www.ventusky.com I see it has lots of extra layers. It's kind of stunning that a whole world of info can be rendered on your screen in different layers, in appropriately real time.
	4:22pm David D: I do like maps - a lot! And thanks for that one, Henry. 70°F here now, apparently.
	4:24pm northguineahills: Ground Zero does a great remix/cover of Those Were The Days/
	4:27pm David D: Yes, there have been many covers of the old Russian song, including the most well-known one by Mary Hopkin.
	4:28pm Webhamster Henry: These are the days the will be the the days that were those.
	4:31pm David D: And those will be the days that won't be these or those.
	4:37pm northguineahills: ...until a massive gaseous giant rogue planet passes near us and its gravity flings us out of the solar system, then we'll have no days....
	4:37pm Gary via app: Howdy!
	4:37pm doctorjazz: Hi! Not working today, be in and out for the long distance subway ride!
	4:38pm northguineahills: why do I suddenly want a Bud Light (David won't get that unless he watches American commercials)"dili-diili"
	4:41pm northguineahills: It's a lovely 93F/34C here in F-L-A.
	4:41pm Doug Schulkind: I hope you've been carbo loading, Mr. Marathon Man!
	4:42pm Little Danny: greetings all
	4:44pm David D: Greetings Gary, Doc, Doug, and Danny!
	4:44pm David D: Doug: Not to worry, I've got organic pretzels!
	4:47pm still b/p: For lunch I ate a soft pretzel stick, which is really like a burly hot dog bun in appearance, with some lentil veg soup, and it was pretty right. Pretzel Logic, Lunch Edition.
	4:49pm Webhamster Henry: Gee, 6 hours, I guess I better put the Norwegian Train Trip on again . Maybe there's an Orient Express video so I can go through these eastern European cities.
	4:50pm Webhamster Henry: I guess I can take the TGV from Amsterdam to Bruxelles. www.youtube.com...
	4:50pm David D: still b/p: That actually sounds like a great combination. Rolls made of pretzel dough are quite common (and often quite good) over here.
	4:50pm David D: All aboard!
	4:52pm David D: Henry: Wait, the TGV from Amsterdam to Brussels can't take all that long.
	5:00pm Webhamster Henry: It's not - it's like 2 hours, I'll have to put it on repeat.
	5:02pm northguineahills: I went to the Radio Blau page page and navigated myself back to here. Nice comments page cycle.
	5:02pm Webhamster Henry: I think you need at least one latin character in the track name to be able to "clicky star" a track.
	5:06pm David D: Henry: I think any non-Latin character disables the function, in fact. Great video, by the way!
	5:06pm doctorjazz: Never heard this in Yiddish! Love it!
	5:06pm Sem: ditto!
	5:06pm Webhamster Henry: It's great that Joel Grey helped get this project up in the US this summer.
	5:07pm doctorjazz: Nice Reminds me of my parents ..
	5:08pm Webhamster Henry: David: think you can have Daniel Kahn & Painted Bird back on?
	5:09pm David D: Yes, it is a great version, I find as well. Interesting translating texts into the language it was supposed to be in the first place.
	5:09pm Webhamster Henry: Nachem the Beggar is one of my favorite jokes!
	5:10pm David D: Henry: Hopefully some day. I don't think they make it to Leipzig regularly, although their show here was amazing and totally packed.
	5:10pm David D: And hello Sem!
	5:13pm still b/p: Some of the earlier selections put me in mind of Fiddler...and I was playing the Sunrise, Sunset melody half-assedly on one string of the guitar. I like lyricist Sheldon Harnick's story of the first times letting people hear Sunrise, Sunset - played for Jerrry bock's wife and then Sheldon's sister -- and they cried.
	5:16pm Dean: Not quite the same as in the original English. [Joke.]
	5:17pm Webhamster Henry: Harnick got a special Tony a few years ago .. and they gave it during the commercial , grrr!
	5:20pm still b/p: May Grandma Tzeitel give them a nightmare beatdown in their beds!
	5:20pm Webhamster Henry: For those keeping track , We've left Schipol and are now switching to 25Kv electricity to accellerate up to 285 kph.
	5:25pm David D: Keeping tracks?
	5:29pm Webhamster Henry: This is a very WFMU way to celebrate Rosh Hashanah.
	5:29pm doctorjazz: This Cannonball version is FABULOUS! Always loved it
	5:30pm David D: Yes, the tunes were in the air and he really made it his own.
	5:31pm still b/p: Flurry of Fiddler facts falling on me: Bette Midler joined the original run of Fiddler in 1967! Bert Convy was in it! Bea Arthur....Adrienne Barbeau....
	5:33pm Webhamster Henry: Hey I made it to Rotterdam!. by bus it's about an hour and a half, this took about 40 minutes.
	5:40pm Webhamster Henry: People should use UTC more often. As a person who had to deal with time issues in programming, "what time is it" is a very non trivial question!
	5:42pm David D: Henry: Yes, I heard or read something about the struggle programmers often have with time differences, with all the exceptions and exceptions to exceptions.
	5:53pm northguineahills: I've always proposed using UTC. relative time will become meaningless once people get used to it.
	5:54pm David D: That could only work if everyone went along with it, of course. A tough sell, I'm sure.
	5:56pm Sem: Lurked and loved what you've played thus far. Thank you, and good night, David, and Subway denizens.
	5:57pm David D: Thanks, Sem, have a good night!
	5:59pm Webhamster Henry: First you'd just use UTC, especially when scheduling international streaming events (like Continental Subway)... this would both be accurate and tell people it's an inter-temporal event! People can just ask their digital assistants to schedule it for them or translate the time.
	6:02pm David D: True, smartphones, computers, and the like could all just show us the current UTC. It would surely work very well in a rational world.
	6:06pm David D: But what do I know? I can't even get one of the computers in the main radio room to shut off. It keeps rebooting itself.
	6:06pm Dean: We should abandon the fiction of time as a cycle altogether, just start enumerating hours from now until doomsday. If we started today, then 43812 o'clock would be what we now refer to as tomorrow five years hence.
	6:10pm David D: Dean: Or introduce the 1000-minute day, as some have proposed.
	6:14pm Webhamster Henry: People at the South Pole could get to choose their own timezones. (I think they go with New Zealand, where a lot of the supply planes come from). A revolving door there would cross the international date line several times a minute: instant time machine.
	6:15pm Webhamster Henry: The ten hour day: mentalfloss.com...
	6:18pm David D: Henry: Yes, that was what I was thinking. Speaking of which, it is now the 26th of Fructidor over here.
	6:28pm northguineahills: Metric time! Although I'd prefer we get a 35 workweek like France. David, when did Germany use the French Revolutionary calendar. I want to hear the Kronos Quartet plays the works of Ian Mackaye.
	6:31pm Webhamster Henry: Wikipedia says the french Revolutionary calendar "It was used in government records in France and other areas under French rule, including Belgium, Luxembourg, and parts of the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Malta and Italy." It was pretty dead by 1805.
	6:33pm kuba: yeehaw all! checkin in through the spotty greyhound wifi, unfortunately not enough bandwith to listen
	6:36pm Webhamster Henry: Trailways used to be pretty good! But it would time out after 1 hour or so and you'd have to log in again.
	6:37pm northguineahills: I though Germany (minus the rhineland) wasn't conquered by Napoleon until after he was crowned emperor.
	6:37pm Webhamster Henry: BTW, I'll be (virtually) pulling into Brussels pretty soon.
	6:37pm kuba: yeah, it's pretty random logouts all the time // i am jetlagging my way towards a nice, healthy 30 hours day, btw
	6:38pm David D: Hey Kuba - you made it! And on the bus already...
	6:40pm kuba: yes! got to hang out at hudson river park today
	6:43pm David D: Well that's good at least - how long is your trip?
	6:44pm northguineahills: Jeff Conklin plays one Dead related set on each of his Woofmoo Avant Ghetto program Monday mornings 0:00-3:00 (EDT)
	6:44pm kuba: mmmh i always answer that wrong... 23 hours / 4 weeks, resp.
	6:44pm northguineahills: Cool, kuba, your in the City, wish I could be up there.
	6:46pm kuba: yeah! it's great, everytime i'm back... and i'm going to sound dorky, the air, the smells (all of them), the buildings, soo many people. love it. unfortunately only two days in the city this time
	6:47pm kuba: by the way, there's no gtdr-32k stream, is there?
	🚂 6:48pm βrian: Just dropping in. Hello, David D. and listeners. I woke up in an envelope of existential ennui this morning, so I called in sick and spent the day pottering about in the garage. Glad to be here.
	6:49pm northguineahills: @kuba: not any more. If the app won't work, try the web page (probably take almost as much bandwith w/ the popup.
	6:50pm northguineahills: I have to admit I haven't heard much Mickey Hart solo stuff, this is pretty good!
	6:51pm Webhamster Henry: @βrian: that's my full time job!
	🚂 6:52pm βrian: I saw Mickey in Burlington, VT in the late 80s. I expected it to be a bit cheesy, but it turned out to be really fun
	6:52pm David D: βrian: Glad to see you, pottering about is often exactly what we need.
	6:53pm David D: Kuba: No, unfortunately not. Sorry...
	6:53pm kuba: @ngh: thanks! tried & failed...
	6:54pm David D: βrian: That does sound like fun, and Burlington is a great place as well.
	🚂 6:56pm βrian: Make America Potter Again
	6:57pm kuba: now _that's_ great
	🚂 6:59pm βrian: Or, rather, "Let America ..."
	7:03pm melinda: hi all
	7:04pm David D: Hello Melinda!
	🚂 7:05pm βrian: @melinda: Hola from the Isthmus.
	7:05pm David D: βrian: Or as Kurt Vonnegut famously wrote: "We are here on Earth to fart around. Don't let anybody tell you any different!"
	🚂 7:07pm βrian: Let us tip our hats to Le Pétomane, then. Or lift our skirts, etc ...
	7:08pm David D: Vonnegut had a way with words and with sanity. He is missed.
	7:11pm kuba: i first learned about vonnegut when my cousin named her turtle after him. he ran away eventually.
	🚂 7:11pm βrian: Speaking of, what's Dresden like, these days?
	🚂 7:12pm βrian: @kuba: "So it goes."
	7:12pm David D: Dresden has been fixed up rather nicely in places, and the Frauenkirche restored. Or do you mean politically?
	🚂 7:14pm βrian: Not politically. My head's in the sand, in that regard. For the day, anyway.
	7:15pm northguineahills: I've noticed Tokyo also has rebuilt from its own fire bombing as well the last time I was there.
	7:17pm northguineahills: I like how in Berlin, the Reichstag, the Pergomon, and other public building have left bullet and shrapnel scars on their facade as a reminder of the war.
	🚂 7:20pm βrian: Wow, Mickey and I share a birthday. I liked Christo's treatment of the Reichstag. Like supple bandages.
	7:20pm still b/p: Had a Vonnegut immersion when I was 15. Started with Slaughterhouse Five, then about five others in high school on my own and in class reading. Only a couple after that, though. In a local park with someone much younger during a theater perfomance last summer, we saw a big asterisk spray-painted simply and roughly on the side of a large concrete pipe waiting to be installed in the ground, and then realized we'd both had the identical thought: the simple rendering looked like Vonnegut's depiction of the ol' human A-hole in his drawings for Breakfast of Champions.
	🚂 7:27pm βrian: WKAR got stuck on Elgar. Good lord, I've had enough Elgar.
	7:28pm kuba: i'm ashamed to say that my biggest vonnegut immersion (save the turtle) was the movie "breakfast for champions", which i remember liking despite it's reputation
	7:29pm David D: Happy birthday, βrian!
	🚂 7:29pm βrian: @stll b/p: An assterisk?
	7:30pm David D: Kuba: I agree that the movie was strangely underrated.
	7:31pm David D: I recently reread Cat's Cradle - which has lost none of its brilliance or relevance.
	7:31pm doctorjazz: Ah, happy Birthday Brian, today was my mom's birthday as well.
	7:33pm northguineahills: I revisited Vonnegut about 4 years ago, as I hadn't read him since HS. Glad I did (Breakfast of Champions was my intro when I was 16)
	🚂 7:33pm βrian: Ah, why, 'zank you! And let's shout out to D.H. Lawrence, as well.
	7:33pm Jeff: Didn't know Breakfast of Champions was a movie, tho I haven't seen Slaughterhouse Five yet either, so I should probably start with that.
	7:34pm David D: Yes, I've been meaning to reread some of his others, but I think we lent a few out permanently at some point.
	7:34pm kuba: huh, sh5 is a movie? // ßrian - a happy birthday rich in pottery to you
	🚂 7:35pm βrian: My birthday card image (though with a different color profile): images.rkd.nl...
	7:36pm David D: Greetings Jeff! Yes, BoC was a movie that got terrible reviews, but which Kuba and I both seem to think was okay.
	7:39pm Jeff: Just saw the trailer...looks more intriguing than I found the book. May be better suited to the medium than to print.
	7:44pm northguineahills: @βrian: SUper duper happy bday! Also my wife's bday, and half of her design team lost their jobs today (including her). Four years ago she got laid off a week before her bday. (and we just renewed our Brooklyn lease two weeks ago)
	🚂 7:45pm βrian: Oh, no. Vonnegut was most certainly best manifested via print. Or, at least, ink on paper.
	7:46pm northguineahills: I've heard OF Kullak, just not his music, Brandts-Buys is new to me, and I'm a sucker for anything pipe organy.
	7:46pm kuba: crossing the benjamin franklin bridge -- gotta go, have a good one, i have beers to drink! thank you for the nice chat
	7:47pm northguineahills: Haven't heard this Realization of NY Counterpoint before. Ciaos, kuba!
	🚂 7:47pm βrian: @NGH: Best wishes for your habib'ti. My wife just lost her job this week, as well. Oy!
	7:47pm David D: Kuba: Enjoy it - say hi to Philly!
	7:48pm David D: βrian and NGH: Sorry to hear that. Sounds like a terrible trend.
	🚂 7:48pm βrian: Call me repetitive, but I love Steve Reich, I love Steve Reich, I love Steve Reich ...
	7:52pm melinda: @Brian haha. me too.
	7:53pm Webhamster Henry: Vonnegut: a bunch of his short stories were turned in to the PBS film "Between Time and Timbuctu", which is great. Happy Birthday, Wanda June and Mother Night are also out there as films. But the time is right to make The Sirens of Titan - please cast Jeremy Irons as Winston Niles Rumfoord.
	7:53pm still b/p: Thanks for the late day accompaniment. Out for a friend's gig for a few hours.
	7:55pm northguineahills: Thanks, at least since we got married, she doesn't have to rely on her work visa any more.
	7:56pm David D: Guys, I can play this again if you like...
	7:56pm David D: still b/p: Thanks! Enjoy the gig...
	🚂 7:57pm βrian: Again, again, again. I like.
	7:58pm northguineahills: It is pronounced that way, I heard him pronounce it at BAM once.
	8:00pm Webhamster Henry: Hey! Sirens of Titan is set to be a TV series!
	🚂 8:00pm βrian: Yes, re Reich's name. I only discovered that after years of mispronouncing it.
	8:00pm melinda: I never had a Vonnegut immersion. But I did fall for a Vonnegut fake-out in college. Someone wrote in chalk on the sidewalks of the Pentacrest (U of Iowa's equivalent a quad) that Vonnegut would be speaking there at a later date. After a large crowd had gathered the prankster responsible announced from the steps of the old capitol building that we were all suckers and ran off. I saved the campus newspaper photo of the assembled crowd.
	8:01pm melinda: Wait what is the correct pronunciation? I missed it.
	8:01pm melinda: Reich?
	8:03pm melinda: Like Robert Reich.
	8:04pm northguineahills: His parents probably pronounced it the anglified way.
	🚂 8:07pm βrian: Ooh, birthday dinner is soon to be on the table ... Rocket salad, shrimp curry with wild rice, and a racy Touraine.
	8:08pm David D: Sounds nice, βrian, enjoy your meal and birthday evening!
	8:09pm David D: Henry (above): Really? Who is doing the series?
	8:11pm Webhamster Henry: www.cinemablend.com...
	8:13pm David D: Henry: Just wow.
	8:14pm David D: I will have to reread it first.
	8:18pm northguineahills: damn! That's awesome Henry!
	8:31pm northguineahills: Ok, I've spent to much time on aesthetic minutia at work, time to leave, thanks David!
	8:33pm David D: Thanks, NGH, have a fine evening!
	8:34pm Little Danny: Peeling off, thanks for the fine soundtrack
	8:36pm David D: Thank you, Danny, hear you around!
	🚂 9:00pm βrian: Thanks, David!
	9:12pm David D: βrian: Hope it was as good as it sounded - making me hungry in fact...
	9:31pm doctorjazz: Rocking set here David,!
	9:31pm David D: Thanks, Doctorjazz!
	9:41pm Parq: Well shit, David, now I find out you're doing a double shift today! It's my loss -- amen to that.
	9:44pm David D: Hey Parq, better late than never!
	9:51pm doctorjazz: Home stretch, David, great job
	9:53pm David D: Thanks, Doc!
	9:53pm Doug Schulkind: It's not auf wiedersehn, David, it's until we meet again. What a long day's Subway to the Continent! Sweet and delightful sounds abound!
	9:56pm Webhamster Henry: I'd say! Get some sleep, David!
	9:56pm melinda: Thanks for the extended show, David!
	10:00pm David D: Thanks everyone - have a great week!

Listener comments!
	4:05pm northguineahills: Wilmington, NC will be lucky to have signs like that in such pristine condition Friday morning.
	4:08pm David D: True, NGH, I wasn't even thinking of that.
	4:09pm David D: Everyone stay safe!
	4:10pm northguineahills: I can't help it, I'm a weather nerd (used to teach it at CUNY-Hunter College) www.windy.com...
	4:12pm David D: That map sure makes it look scary.
	4:13pm northguineahills: To relax b/tn classes as an undergrad, I would draw weather maps. complete w/ my predictions of precipitation and isotherms (over the USA Today map). I was/am weird.
	4:14pm David D: Sounds not too far off from something I might do, not that I ever did that per se.
	4:15pm northguineahills: well, that, and like maps...
	4:15pm northguineahills: (making maps right now)
	4:17pm Webhamster Henry: That a nice map : similar to www.ventusky.com I see it has lots of extra layers. It's kind of stunning that a whole world of info can be rendered on your screen in different layers, in appropriately real time.
	4:22pm David D: I do like maps - a lot! And thanks for that one, Henry. 70°F here now, apparently.
	4:24pm northguineahills: Ground Zero does a great remix/cover of Those Were The Days/
	4:27pm David D: Yes, there have been many covers of the old Russian song, including the most well-known one by Mary Hopkin.
	4:28pm Webhamster Henry: These are the days the will be the the days that were those.
	4:31pm David D: And those will be the days that won't be these or those.
	4:37pm northguineahills: ...until a massive gaseous giant rogue planet passes near us and its gravity flings us out of the solar system, then we'll have no days....
	4:37pm Gary via app: Howdy!
	4:37pm doctorjazz: Hi! Not working today, be in and out for the long distance subway ride!
	4:38pm northguineahills: why do I suddenly want a Bud Light (David won't get that unless he watches American commercials)"dili-diili"
	4:41pm northguineahills: It's a lovely 93F/34C here in F-L-A.
	4:41pm Doug Schulkind: I hope you've been carbo loading, Mr. Marathon Man!
	4:42pm Little Danny: greetings all
	4:44pm David D: Greetings Gary, Doc, Doug, and Danny!
	4:44pm David D: Doug: Not to worry, I've got organic pretzels!
	4:47pm still b/p: For lunch I ate a soft pretzel stick, which is really like a burly hot dog bun in appearance, with some lentil veg soup, and it was pretty right. Pretzel Logic, Lunch Edition.
	4:49pm Webhamster Henry: Gee, 6 hours, I guess I better put the Norwegian Train Trip on again . Maybe there's an Orient Express video so I can go through these eastern European cities.
	4:50pm Webhamster Henry: I guess I can take the TGV from Amsterdam to Bruxelles. www.youtube.com...
	4:50pm David D: still b/p: That actually sounds like a great combination. Rolls made of pretzel dough are quite common (and often quite good) over here.
	4:50pm David D: All aboard!
	4:52pm David D: Henry: Wait, the TGV from Amsterdam to Brussels can't take all that long.
	5:00pm Webhamster Henry: It's not - it's like 2 hours, I'll have to put it on repeat.
	5:02pm northguineahills: I went to the Radio Blau page page and navigated myself back to here. Nice comments page cycle.
	5:02pm Webhamster Henry: I think you need at least one latin character in the track name to be able to "clicky star" a track.
	5:06pm David D: Henry: I think any non-Latin character disables the function, in fact. Great video, by the way!
	5:06pm doctorjazz: Never heard this in Yiddish! Love it!
	5:06pm Sem: ditto!
	5:06pm Webhamster Henry: It's great that Joel Grey helped get this project up in the US this summer.
	5:07pm doctorjazz: Nice Reminds me of my parents ..
	5:08pm Webhamster Henry: David: think you can have Daniel Kahn & Painted Bird back on?
	5:09pm David D: Yes, it is a great version, I find as well. Interesting translating texts into the language it was supposed to be in the first place.
	5:09pm Webhamster Henry: Nachem the Beggar is one of my favorite jokes!
	5:10pm David D: Henry: Hopefully some day. I don't think they make it to Leipzig regularly, although their show here was amazing and totally packed.
	5:10pm David D: And hello Sem!
	5:13pm still b/p: Some of the earlier selections put me in mind of Fiddler...and I was playing the Sunrise, Sunset melody half-assedly on one string of the guitar. I like lyricist Sheldon Harnick's story of the first times letting people hear Sunrise, Sunset - played for Jerrry bock's wife and then Sheldon's sister -- and they cried.
	5:16pm Dean: Not quite the same as in the original English. [Joke.]
	5:17pm Webhamster Henry: Harnick got a special Tony a few years ago .. and they gave it during the commercial , grrr!
	5:20pm still b/p: May Grandma Tzeitel give them a nightmare beatdown in their beds!
	5:20pm Webhamster Henry: For those keeping track , We've left Schipol and are now switching to 25Kv electricity to accellerate up to 285 kph.
	5:25pm David D: Keeping tracks?
	5:29pm Webhamster Henry: This is a very WFMU way to celebrate Rosh Hashanah.
	5:29pm doctorjazz: This Cannonball version is FABULOUS! Always loved it
	5:30pm David D: Yes, the tunes were in the air and he really made it his own.
	5:31pm still b/p: Flurry of Fiddler facts falling on me: Bette Midler joined the original run of Fiddler in 1967! Bert Convy was in it! Bea Arthur....Adrienne Barbeau....
	5:33pm Webhamster Henry: Hey I made it to Rotterdam!. by bus it's about an hour and a half, this took about 40 minutes.
	5:40pm Webhamster Henry: People should use UTC more often. As a person who had to deal with time issues in programming, "what time is it" is a very non trivial question!
	5:42pm David D: Henry: Yes, I heard or read something about the struggle programmers often have with time differences, with all the exceptions and exceptions to exceptions.
	5:53pm northguineahills: I've always proposed using UTC. relative time will become meaningless once people get used to it.
	5:54pm David D: That could only work if everyone went along with it, of course. A tough sell, I'm sure.
	5:56pm Sem: Lurked and loved what you've played thus far. Thank you, and good night, David, and Subway denizens.
	5:57pm David D: Thanks, Sem, have a good night!
	5:59pm Webhamster Henry: First you'd just use UTC, especially when scheduling international streaming events (like Continental Subway)... this would both be accurate and tell people it's an inter-temporal event! People can just ask their digital assistants to schedule it for them or translate the time.
	6:02pm David D: True, smartphones, computers, and the like could all just show us the current UTC. It would surely work very well in a rational world.
	6:06pm David D: But what do I know? I can't even get one of the computers in the main radio room to shut off. It keeps rebooting itself.
	6:06pm Dean: We should abandon the fiction of time as a cycle altogether, just start enumerating hours from now until doomsday. If we started today, then 43812 o'clock would be what we now refer to as tomorrow five years hence.
	6:10pm David D: Dean: Or introduce the 1000-minute day, as some have proposed.
	6:14pm Webhamster Henry: People at the South Pole could get to choose their own timezones. (I think they go with New Zealand, where a lot of the supply planes come from). A revolving door there would cross the international date line several times a minute: instant time machine.
	6:15pm Webhamster Henry: The ten hour day: mentalfloss.com...
	6:18pm David D: Henry: Yes, that was what I was thinking. Speaking of which, it is now the 26th of Fructidor over here.
	6:28pm northguineahills: Metric time! Although I'd prefer we get a 35 workweek like France. David, when did Germany use the French Revolutionary calendar. I want to hear the Kronos Quartet plays the works of Ian Mackaye.
	6:31pm Webhamster Henry: Wikipedia says the french Revolutionary calendar "It was used in government records in France and other areas under French rule, including Belgium, Luxembourg, and parts of the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Malta and Italy." It was pretty dead by 1805.
	6:33pm kuba: yeehaw all! checkin in through the spotty greyhound wifi, unfortunately not enough bandwith to listen
	6:36pm Webhamster Henry: Trailways used to be pretty good! But it would time out after 1 hour or so and you'd have to log in again.
	6:37pm northguineahills: I though Germany (minus the rhineland) wasn't conquered by Napoleon until after he was crowned emperor.
	6:37pm Webhamster Henry: BTW, I'll be (virtually) pulling into Brussels pretty soon.
	6:37pm kuba: yeah, it's pretty random logouts all the time // i am jetlagging my way towards a nice, healthy 30 hours day, btw
	6:38pm David D: Hey Kuba - you made it! And on the bus already...
	6:40pm kuba: yes! got to hang out at hudson river park today
	6:43pm David D: Well that's good at least - how long is your trip?
	6:44pm northguineahills: Jeff Conklin plays one Dead related set on each of his Woofmoo Avant Ghetto program Monday mornings 0:00-3:00 (EDT)
	6:44pm kuba: mmmh i always answer that wrong... 23 hours / 4 weeks, resp.
	6:44pm northguineahills: Cool, kuba, your in the City, wish I could be up there.
	6:46pm kuba: yeah! it's great, everytime i'm back... and i'm going to sound dorky, the air, the smells (all of them), the buildings, soo many people. love it. unfortunately only two days in the city this time
	6:47pm kuba: by the way, there's no gtdr-32k stream, is there?
	🚂 6:48pm βrian: Just dropping in. Hello, David D. and listeners. I woke up in an envelope of existential ennui this morning, so I called in sick and spent the day pottering about in the garage. Glad to be here.
	6:49pm northguineahills: @kuba: not any more. If the app won't work, try the web page (probably take almost as much bandwith w/ the popup.
	6:50pm northguineahills: I have to admit I haven't heard much Mickey Hart solo stuff, this is pretty good!
	6:51pm Webhamster Henry: @βrian: that's my full time job!
	🚂 6:52pm βrian: I saw Mickey in Burlington, VT in the late 80s. I expected it to be a bit cheesy, but it turned out to be really fun
	6:52pm David D: βrian: Glad to see you, pottering about is often exactly what we need.
	6:53pm David D: Kuba: No, unfortunately not. Sorry...
	6:53pm kuba: @ngh: thanks! tried & failed...
	6:54pm David D: βrian: That does sound like fun, and Burlington is a great place as well.
	🚂 6:56pm βrian: Make America Potter Again
	6:57pm kuba: now _that's_ great
	🚂 6:59pm βrian: Or, rather, "Let America ..."
	7:03pm melinda: hi all
	7:04pm David D: Hello Melinda!
	🚂 7:05pm βrian: @melinda: Hola from the Isthmus.
	7:05pm David D: βrian: Or as Kurt Vonnegut famously wrote: "We are here on Earth to fart around. Don't let anybody tell you any different!"
	🚂 7:07pm βrian: Let us tip our hats to Le Pétomane, then. Or lift our skirts, etc ...
	7:08pm David D: Vonnegut had a way with words and with sanity. He is missed.
	7:11pm kuba: i first learned about vonnegut when my cousin named her turtle after him. he ran away eventually.
	🚂 7:11pm βrian: Speaking of, what's Dresden like, these days?
	🚂 7:12pm βrian: @kuba: "So it goes."
	7:12pm David D: Dresden has been fixed up rather nicely in places, and the Frauenkirche restored. Or do you mean politically?
	🚂 7:14pm βrian: Not politically. My head's in the sand, in that regard. For the day, anyway.
	7:15pm northguineahills: I've noticed Tokyo also has rebuilt from its own fire bombing as well the last time I was there.
	7:17pm northguineahills: I like how in Berlin, the Reichstag, the Pergomon, and other public building have left bullet and shrapnel scars on their facade as a reminder of the war.
	🚂 7:20pm βrian: Wow, Mickey and I share a birthday. I liked Christo's treatment of the Reichstag. Like supple bandages.
	7:20pm still b/p: Had a Vonnegut immersion when I was 15. Started with Slaughterhouse Five, then about five others in high school on my own and in class reading. Only a couple after that, though. In a local park with someone much younger during a theater perfomance last summer, we saw a big asterisk spray-painted simply and roughly on the side of a large concrete pipe waiting to be installed in the ground, and then realized we'd both had the identical thought: the simple rendering looked like Vonnegut's depiction of the ol' human A-hole in his drawings for Breakfast of Champions.
	🚂 7:27pm βrian: WKAR got stuck on Elgar. Good lord, I've had enough Elgar.
	7:28pm kuba: i'm ashamed to say that my biggest vonnegut immersion (save the turtle) was the movie "breakfast for champions", which i remember liking despite it's reputation
	7:29pm David D: Happy birthday, βrian!
	🚂 7:29pm βrian: @stll b/p: An assterisk?
	7:30pm David D: Kuba: I agree that the movie was strangely underrated.
	7:31pm David D: I recently reread Cat's Cradle - which has lost none of its brilliance or relevance.
	7:31pm doctorjazz: Ah, happy Birthday Brian, today was my mom's birthday as well.
	7:33pm northguineahills: I revisited Vonnegut about 4 years ago, as I hadn't read him since HS. Glad I did (Breakfast of Champions was my intro when I was 16)
	🚂 7:33pm βrian: Ah, why, 'zank you! And let's shout out to D.H. Lawrence, as well.
	7:33pm Jeff: Didn't know Breakfast of Champions was a movie, tho I haven't seen Slaughterhouse Five yet either, so I should probably start with that.
	7:34pm David D: Yes, I've been meaning to reread some of his others, but I think we lent a few out permanently at some point.
	7:34pm kuba: huh, sh5 is a movie? // ßrian - a happy birthday rich in pottery to you
	🚂 7:35pm βrian: My birthday card image (though with a different color profile): images.rkd.nl...
	7:36pm David D: Greetings Jeff! Yes, BoC was a movie that got terrible reviews, but which Kuba and I both seem to think was okay.
	7:39pm Jeff: Just saw the trailer...looks more intriguing than I found the book. May be better suited to the medium than to print.
	7:44pm northguineahills: @βrian: SUper duper happy bday! Also my wife's bday, and half of her design team lost their jobs today (including her). Four years ago she got laid off a week before her bday. (and we just renewed our Brooklyn lease two weeks ago)
	🚂 7:45pm βrian: Oh, no. Vonnegut was most certainly best manifested via print. Or, at least, ink on paper.
	7:46pm northguineahills: I've heard OF Kullak, just not his music, Brandts-Buys is new to me, and I'm a sucker for anything pipe organy.
	7:46pm kuba: crossing the benjamin franklin bridge -- gotta go, have a good one, i have beers to drink! thank you for the nice chat
	7:47pm northguineahills: Haven't heard this Realization of NY Counterpoint before. Ciaos, kuba!
	🚂 7:47pm βrian: @NGH: Best wishes for your habib'ti. My wife just lost her job this week, as well. Oy!
	7:47pm David D: Kuba: Enjoy it - say hi to Philly!
	7:48pm David D: βrian and NGH: Sorry to hear that. Sounds like a terrible trend.
	🚂 7:48pm βrian: Call me repetitive, but I love Steve Reich, I love Steve Reich, I love Steve Reich ...
	7:52pm melinda: @Brian haha. me too.
	7:53pm Webhamster Henry: Vonnegut: a bunch of his short stories were turned in to the PBS film "Between Time and Timbuctu", which is great. Happy Birthday, Wanda June and Mother Night are also out there as films. But the time is right to make The Sirens of Titan - please cast Jeremy Irons as Winston Niles Rumfoord.
	7:53pm still b/p: Thanks for the late day accompaniment. Out for a friend's gig for a few hours.
	7:55pm northguineahills: Thanks, at least since we got married, she doesn't have to rely on her work visa any more.
	7:56pm David D: Guys, I can play this again if you like...
	7:56pm David D: still b/p: Thanks! Enjoy the gig...
	🚂 7:57pm βrian: Again, again, again. I like.
	7:58pm northguineahills: It is pronounced that way, I heard him pronounce it at BAM once.
	8:00pm Webhamster Henry: Hey! Sirens of Titan is set to be a TV series!
	🚂 8:00pm βrian: Yes, re Reich's name. I only discovered that after years of mispronouncing it.
	8:00pm melinda: I never had a Vonnegut immersion. But I did fall for a Vonnegut fake-out in college. Someone wrote in chalk on the sidewalks of the Pentacrest (U of Iowa's equivalent a quad) that Vonnegut would be speaking there at a later date. After a large crowd had gathered the prankster responsible announced from the steps of the old capitol building that we were all suckers and ran off. I saved the campus newspaper photo of the assembled crowd.
	8:01pm melinda: Wait what is the correct pronunciation? I missed it.
	8:01pm melinda: Reich?
	8:03pm melinda: Like Robert Reich.
	8:04pm northguineahills: His parents probably pronounced it the anglified way.
	🚂 8:07pm βrian: Ooh, birthday dinner is soon to be on the table ... Rocket salad, shrimp curry with wild rice, and a racy Touraine.
	8:08pm David D: Sounds nice, βrian, enjoy your meal and birthday evening!
	8:09pm David D: Henry (above): Really? Who is doing the series?
	8:11pm Webhamster Henry: www.cinemablend.com...
	8:13pm David D: Henry: Just wow.
	8:14pm David D: I will have to reread it first.
	8:18pm northguineahills: damn! That's awesome Henry!
	8:31pm northguineahills: Ok, I've spent to much time on aesthetic minutia at work, time to leave, thanks David!
	8:33pm David D: Thanks, NGH, have a fine evening!
	8:34pm Little Danny: Peeling off, thanks for the fine soundtrack
	8:36pm David D: Thank you, Danny, hear you around!
	🚂 9:00pm βrian: Thanks, David!
	9:12pm David D: βrian: Hope it was as good as it sounded - making me hungry in fact...
	9:31pm doctorjazz: Rocking set here David,!
	9:31pm David D: Thanks, Doctorjazz!
	9:41pm Parq: Well shit, David, now I find out you're doing a double shift today! It's my loss -- amen to that.
	9:44pm David D: Hey Parq, better late than never!
	9:51pm doctorjazz: Home stretch, David, great job
	9:53pm David D: Thanks, Doc!
	9:53pm Doug Schulkind: It's not auf wiedersehn, David, it's until we meet again. What a long day's Subway to the Continent! Sweet and delightful sounds abound!
	9:56pm Webhamster Henry: I'd say! Get some sleep, David!
	9:56pm melinda: Thanks for the extended show, David!
	10:00pm David D: Thanks everyone - have a great week!
