"To the Moon" The whole album is really good - well worth hunting down. PP is essentially Michael Giblin with a few helpers - appears there's a follow up and he's about to record a third. http://www.parallaxproject.com Ian outbound-only email address wrote: > found it -- Parallax Project, from Oblivious. > Described badly below -- apparently I confused "bridge" with "chorus" somehow. > > On Sun, Aug 2, 2009 at 12:57 PM, outbound-only email > address wrote: >> on july 21 I downloaded an untagged mp3 from somewhere on the >> internets, maybe via the blog of someone on this list, but even if >> not, it sounds quite this-listy.

Mallon" Subject: Re: [loud-fans] a special place Most computer viruses are written for Windows because one of the primary components of a virus is its ability to spread itself from one computer to another. The vaast majority of home computers are Windows computeyrs, ergo Windows is a much better substrate for propagation. In addition, Linux and Mac OS are much more stable operating systems - fewer vulnerabilities. On Wed, Aug 5, 2009 at 3:03 PM, wrote: > In a message dated 8/5/2009 3:28:50 P.M.

Have you seen that Intel commercial that shows the guy who helped invent the USB as a "rock star"? It's a hoot.
