@hpburkett.bsky.social Howard,
You may not remember me, but I sat in with the St. David’s Compline choir once c. 2002 on the Sunday after the Ascension. I’m trying to find out about a Lent Prose harmonization you’ve done there from time to time.

BASIC was the first coding language I learned. It most definitely opened up my young mind to the possibility and potential of technology. And for that, I can never be thankful enough. RIP 🧡 computerhistory.org/blog/in-memo...

Two questions to the Latin literate.:
1. Describe (words)and depict (images) derive from the L. verbs for write and paint. What would be an analogous term for sound/music?

2. What verb does L. use for composing music as opposed to an oration?

"Trump isn't finished." nytimes.com/2024/08/21/o...

This is a breakout column by Tom Edsall. His expert sources — political scientists — are united in their call of alarm. There is no phony "both sides do it." And the political press is not spared. Sean Wilentz calls theirs "a staggering failure."
