    Jung,

    please don’t let Emo make decisions for you. Or Alexa for that matter.

    This is a big cause with me.

    Cheers

    Jung,

    i missed this post before.

    I absolutely agree. Automated transportation is scary. But it’s here.

    And furthermore – thinking like a geek – it may be that the only jobs left in a few years

    will be programming AI (or AGI) devices.

    Regarding consciousness – what it is depends on who you talk to.

    If you define consciousness broadly enough trees have it.

    If you define it narrowly enough ‘thinking’ machines are excluded.

    The big scare of course is that AGI entities decide that Dr. Frankenstein (us) is irrelevant and disposable for their self-perpetuation agenda.

    Not a very cheery thought but cheers.

    Very exotic indeed in a nice way Juergen,

    Their words look like the Hawaiian language.

    Everyone – thanks for the response.

    David H. – they should call themselves “Shut up and listen to me”. Nice find.

    Jung –

    the Izzy adaptation of Somewhere Over the Rainbow seems to be the standard now.

    Long live Izzy’s music. It only comes along once in a lullaby.

    Juergen – your knowledge of North American folk-celtic-blue grass never ends.

    Fred – it’s funny – i had just discovered The Common Linnets recently.

    They seem to think they belong in Nashville – which they do. Has Ilse gone solo?

    Jacki – i’m happy that you like the topic.

    Cheers

    Ok everyone,

    There is just no way i can let the subject of drums and drummers go by without

    a contribution from the Grateful Dead.

    Kreutzman & Hart would hold court for a half hour some times.

    Here comes a voyage into space. Please enjoy.
