Hedge fund fallout & Other Merry Weather

[Carl Remick]

Re Jason's comment below: As I said, my take was entirely superficial --
was responding mainly to the abundance of gun shops and fundamentalist
churches in the area, as well as the military presence there ... though,
arguably, the latter is less alarming than the NYPD often seems these
days.  Anyway, even w/o the hurricane, I felt little inclination to
linger in the area.  Maybe if I'd had a chance actually to hear some
blues on-site I'd have felt differently.  (This puts me two over the
posting limit for the day -- hope the LBO police don't seize my
keyboard.)

Hey Carl,

Does that pertain to both black and white folks?  My impression is that
most
of the great blues players came from Miss, Ala, Georgia - I suspect that
those
people were a bit left of your average white person.  The strange thing
was
that a lot of the 60s-70s white rockers who came from the Fla-Georgia
area
probably (at least in their music) had a little more respect for blacks
-
probably because they knew where they were taking their riffs from!
