Awesome.   Best news I've read in a while.

I think the more important question that needs addressing is, why a member has formed a years long, (maybe life long), opinion based on hearing an artist "once". Then requires another member to go into a more detailed explanation of why this member's reasoning for supporting Dylan's work should be relevant?

I could not base a formative opinion on any artist based on listening only once. That's just me, I guess.

(What does "Debily, blayd'" mean?) Not that your response would be of much importance based on that two word statement, but may help me understand any future posts you make.
Sarcasm. Is this a rational response to someone's post? Does sarcasm have on it's own merit, a place on these forums as a rational, effective response to any kind of discourse?

Please rate your response to this as:

(1) I agree that sarcasm should be a sufficient response to any post made. Having accepted this form of response, I also agree that this form of response stands as the ultimate definition of what my point is and that I can't make or conceive any other form of another reasonable, rational counterpoint.

(2) I agree that sarcasm should have no place as a response to any post made.

Let the voting begin.


Congrats to Mr. Dylan!

I really don't know whether he deserves it any more this year than someone else, but a group of people in Sweden have declared him worthy.  Frankly, they know more about modern literature than I do and I suspect they know more about that subject than anyone posting on this thread.
Vinyl yes I tettered on adding Armstrong but not sure why I did not. My fault.
