LOVE your message.

For me the song could be a few BPMs faster, but other than that I really like it, Dave and you are really a great team.

Thank, BD. I skipped replying to you until I had another chance to try it faster. I hear what you mean, but it seemed to take away some of the "Ay, whatever happens..." attitude.

The song's a cracker.

Thanks, Ray. "Scare mongering" has likely been a part of Humankind since we were able to share opinions. Guess it comes from not knowing the future, but it sure can take away from enjoying the present. Glad you enjoyed the song. I could talk forever about what an incredible world this could be without money, and often do, but it wouldn't even buy my a cup of coffee.

Thanks, Dan (that's one "as usual" that never gets old for me). I like that "contra-blues theme" designation.
