Okay - the paper has dropped to no 12 in the Google list:



but if you're going to find watches and infer God -
then I find this, and along with your glowing citation of 'White Nationalists', your frequent references to Masters and Wizards, and your K^K ref and find someone who's views on racism are at odds with my own.
What's your favourite Beatles Album? the one with 'Happiness is a Warm Gun' on it I bet..

Are we going to see you back at the Panda's Thumb to talk about 'Intelligent Design' Theology: or are afraid of the light?

Hey, don't drag the Beatles into this.  I love the White album!  Its one of my 10 desert island discs, and the only Beatles album on it.   Perhaps its ironic in light of this discussion, but I chose the White Album precisely because of its musical range (read: diversity).

Yeah, the White Album's good, although I'm a Revolver and Abbey Road man myself. What are the others, starting with number nine, number nine.....

Well at least we share some musical tastes, although you really should listen to the lyrics and message sometime 'Ghost of Paley'.
I'm retiring for noodlemas now - and having seen the righteous win the 'Dover' case will probably find better things to do in 2006 than tease Ghosteys and trolls.
Have a good Christmas/holiday/solstice or whatever and a Happy new year to one and all including you 'Ghost of Paley' and remember the words of John Lennon:
'God is a concept by which we measure our pain'

Heh.  Its been ~20 years since I compiled my DID list.  All I can remember for sure is the White Album.  This was the 80's, so its probably good thing I don't recall.  

Casting back, I'm postive that Milli Vanilli was NOT on the list. I'm pretty sure that Depeche Mode and Billy Idol were not a part.  I think that both Rio by Duran Duran and Electric by The Cult may have been on the list, but I will deny it in court.

These days I'd have to think hard about it, but I'd add Peter Gabriel's soundtrack to the Last Temptation of Christ.  I'd put some Bach on there--I want to die listening to the Brandenburgs.  Possibly a disc by the Anubian Lights, Sky Cries Mary, Bonfire Madigan, Smashing Pumpkins, and Banco de Gaia.  

Anyway, who listens to discs anymore? Its all MP3 now.  I measure my music not by the disc, but by the gigabyte.  Give me an IPOD to fill up, its the 21st century for cryin' out loud.

.. sorry to bring this thread back on-topic but did anyone else notice that the 'Uri Geller of information theory' has just done a disappearing trick?
After the Dover trial (which the IDiots lost by the way) he's abandoned his blog 'Uncommon descent' - which is a shame for his fawning fan club as they won't be able to indulge in mutual masturbation any more.
