Hi Doc, haven't heard from you in awhile!  Good to know you're still out there kicking & hope all is well with you.

On to Hozier... this is the first time I've heard the tune, looked it up on Youtube.  Was not sure about it at first, so I would recommend that interested (curious) folk also check out the interview on it as well.  Performance Art (such as music) has always been a forum for commentary on political and social issues, and the motivation/message is not always transparent. Which is why I recommend the interview.  Would I buy the album? not on the merit of this one tune.... but it is not my preferred genre, I'd have to sample the other work on the CD first.

But Thanks for Sharing, and keep in touch. I know Lena was asking about you awhile back, and we were concerned by your absence here on the forums.

Take Care;
Doug

You are right Amy, everything on the net is sifted through some kind of filter..... looking for???  You cannot stop everything when you are not looking for a needle in a haystack, but rather a particular needle in a haystack of only needles.

As for the Soldier killed in London.... That was a tragedy. Phill is right also that if it happened here in the States, folks would be up at arms about it. MI-5 is taking heat for missing that one as well, but we all know that something is bound to be missed sometimes.  (I would have mentioned Ferguson here as example of public outcry, but will not entertain debate on the subject)

We are being watched and listened to, and Beamer is also correct that things you want/need to keep private are best kept in your head and off public forums, because the record of it will never disappear.

Best reason in the world to spend a few shillings more to get a full featured tuner.  A majority of the "clip-on" electronic tuners don't allow for such fine tuning and lack a "cents" graduation.

OK I went there and see what you are talking about with the E(2) reference, if you look at the top of the page with the song on it you can see the site where the original song is hosted.  You can go there and see what was referenced (like the A(2) grid in chopro as displayed), there you will find the diagram for the chord that chopro was unable to format and display here on Chordie.  Once in awhile you will find a chord variant that defies "normal" convention and the the conversion software will just bypass trying to  figure it out especially if it does not have a grid in it's library (it's not that smart)..... artistic license is OK, and musicians sometimes push the boundaries looking for a particular nuance, but it leaves the rest of us guessing.

I think the site was xguitar.com in this case and it might be in text/tab format.....it is and was.
A(2)= 07X500

E(2)= 006400

E(3)= X7999X

Hope that helps;
Doug

Howdy Dennis and Welcome To Chordie!!

First off, it's mot working for me either and I moderate the "Editor's" section of the forum.  So what's with that???  The site has been going through some changes and upgrades recently (in case some of you have been unable to connect, although not all are due to that alone), and it is possible that that particular functionality is not currently enabled (not used very often).  Work has been done to make things run faster and support newer devices (iPad, iPhone, etc.) so perhaps a little "fat has been trimmed" to that end.

I apologise for the inconvenience, and will inquire "upstairs" about the issue.

Thanks for posting, and hang around, get to know the "family", and Welcome Aboard!

We have to take the innoculate everything path, if it does nothing at all, it takes less time than sorting the herd.  A lot of legacy stuff is still in use and all the logs had to be checked for incursion anyway.....  we are dealing with students (who can be stupid) and Facebook used Kerberos Authentication Protocol, so at least for us it seemed prudent. If not redundant.

Yeah that seems kinda cool.... checked out the website and the concept videos, but noticed that they were in the same area ("in your area").  It would be interesting to see how it would work over a considerable distance as back in the early days we tried Skype and the latency was awful!!!  Granted internet speed has improved in those few years, but I still wonder.

I know, now I'll have to dig my interface out of deep storage and experiment..... again.  At the moment it's all in Jeff's music room (somewhere) from the last time we rehearsed.  He's had carpal tunnel issues due to be repaired next month, so it's been awhile.

I'll e-mail ya Joe when I get my stuff together.

Well it was a good thought..... except I'm not running a Windows Box at the moment, and although I can run it in emulation, it won't get out of it's own way crossing the street, much less further than that.  Wicked latency!

Well Russell, the Packers are looking really strong at the moment and as long as everybody stays healthy, I sure see them going into the playoffs at an advantage.  Their Defense is incredibly stout, and they are not making a lot of mistakes.... just making yardage and giving none.  Earlier I had thought Denver would be in the hunt too, and naturally got to support the locals (Seahawks), but I doubt they have the horsepower to repeat last year's performance against what has shaped into a really tough end of the season.

Either way it is entertaining, and already I feel my butt getting wider from sitting on the couch munching and watching.....

We've used them in high line Motorcoaches, mostly because of the size/weight advantage.  Neodymium is magnetically very dense compared to ceramic and allows for those advantages.  Weight is important when hanging speakers in cabinetry and ceilings as they tend to beat their way out of their mountings going down the road.  Celestion are very good and should fit your application nicely.

It was worth seeing... Arizona kicked a 3pointer, Washington answered with a TD and fumbled the snap for the extra point.  Then the Cats passed a TD that was out of bounds deep (on review), and ran the clock down to the last 3 seconds to win on a field goal.  Final was something like 27-26.

OK, so I can brag about my Beavers after their win over the Arizona State Sun Devils here at home tonight...... It was a late game and the Beaves managed to turn it around in the second half with 3 TDs to clinch it.  Washington next week, and then the Oregon Ducks for the Civil War.
