#1 Oh, dear Christ... the only thing Algore has in common with cellos is he's fat and hollow. Sheesh!

#2 I don't get it. Was Rostropovich in the audience? Is he gay? Why was he drug into this?

#3 One more thing. Having played cello for 14 years, I reached the conclusion that there is no way to play it properly unless it causes pain in several parts of your body.

Al is like that, too. Everytime he opens his mouth, he says something that creates several intellectual ouchy places. For example:

"We're entering--have already entered--a new phase of human history. The fundamental relationship between our species and our home planet has been utterly transformed."

That sounds like something you would hear from a real fan at a Star Trek convention, whose boundless enthusiasm for a television show is such that he has decorated his bedroom with Star Trek paraphernalia, and every night looks himself in the mirror with Mr Spock ears and says "Live long and prosper" before bed.

#4 perhaps it was the "wooden" analogy?

#5 As Marxism-Leninism/Communism teaches, the
"Socialist Revolution" will come from the Right, i.e. a mature Capitalist-Mercantilist, even Bourgeois, economy. The Failed Lefties problem is NOT alleged Fascist Amerika waging war vv 9-11/WOT, its Communist Amerika NOT being the outcome of the WOT. America [Free or Socialist]
"volunteering" to give up its sovereignty, Government, and endowments = America being militarily forced to. In CLINTONISM, Fascist Dubya is both Adolf Bushitler whom needs to be stopped or wiped out, as well as Stalin and Mao's HALF-A-COMMIE/SOCIALIST IDEO-BROTHER, an arrogant warmongering selfish greedy unruly Rightist Capitalist Imperialist little boy and Male Brute whom refuses to listen to his holocaust-happy, Utopian-/Perfectionism-minded, Commie Mother and pro-Mama older/better ideo-brothers.
