    ...
    The world is full of seasons; of anguish, of laughter
    And it comes to mind to write you this:

    Nothing is sure
    Nothing is pure
    And no matter who we think we are
    Everybody gets a chance to be nothing

    Banning only occur if you played it backwards. So long as we don't know which direction it was played.... it remains nothing.

    That's an all time great movie right there!

    In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence.

    The best way to enjoy digital music reproduction is to never listen to good analogue reproduction.
