This election is about who we are as a people, and what we deem acceptable. I hope that means a solid Clinton victory, if only to refute the message that open hatred of races, ethnicities, religions and genders is condoned or even embraced in our democracy and open society.Ben Langhinrichshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16077213274836551992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559941250974523786.post-79801896739621932712016-08-08T06:10:29.199-07:002016-08-08T06:10:29.199-07:00And I, in turn, thank you for your take on the mus...And I, in turn, thank you for your take on the music. It's something which, quite sadly, I do not understand as well as I wish I did. It is an absence in my life which I feel keenly.<br /><br />I absolutely love the way this kind of event can bring artistically-minded and culturally-minded people together for a common cause and shared experience.Czhorathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456061999435980085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559941250974523786.post-55317860353224899842016-08-07T17:11:41.072-07:002016-08-07T17:11:41.072-07:00I just had to take a moment to let you know how mu...I just had to take a moment to let you know how much I enjoyed your take on last night's show. I reviewed it on my culture blog, and because I am a choral singer, among other artistic pursuits, it was the vocal music that left the strongest impression. I was aware, however, of how much collaboration the technical side of the production must have required. Your understanding of this aspect of the project added a great deal to my appreciation of just how incredible this event really was.

The kid is *fourteen.* At that age, just being able to disassemble something and then put it back together again probably feels like an accomplishment. For most adults, being able to disassemble something and then put it back together again *would* be an accomplishment. To read about the whole kerfuffle and to have your takeaway be that he doesn't have enough nerd red just strikes me as silly. And maybe like there's something else going on that the people throwing shade on him maybe wouldn't want to admit to.Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11758371932904469984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559941250974523786.post-71926816720223090752015-09-19T16:02:24.297-07:002015-09-19T16:02:24.297-07:00Great article Leonard - should find more of those ...Great article Leonard - should find more of those talented tech nerds and geeks and get them involved in the industry.

You have to put a transformer on them (they are unbalanced, although I am told they will soon have a balanced model) and provide power (simple speaker cable) but they cost under $300.00, are also beam steering, work extremely well when mounted at the front of a 35 x 25' room. They are speech only, but accomplish the mission extremely well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09728035683169504708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559941250974523786.post-23596876279351634302015-08-17T08:31:03.220-07:002015-08-17T08:31:03.220-07:00Amen.Amen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559941250974523786.post-45151424369783971932015-07-20T06:30:46.747-07:002015-07-20T06:30:46.747-07:00Hey Leonard, interesting post!

I found particularly interesting this notion that when there is only one female character in a movie, by default, she represents all women. I think it's almost a subconscious thing that can influence viewers about what all females ought to be like. Great comparison to Granger from the Harry Potter series too.

It helps to show that this is an issue that affects everyone, not just women.
