[TheForge] Re: music

[Justin Fellenz]

You're right, Phlip. I guess I forgot the time expansion
phenomenon...we all seem to keep a soft spot for the music we came of
age to, but a lot of that is the same for me, having graduated in 85 to
ac/dc, zeppelin, janice joplin, and so on, as it is for folks 10-15
years older. The great just stay great. 

Your age range is about what I expected. Blacksmithing seems to require
maturity. I'm catching up.
