The Reverend Al Sharpton, who, since he has absolutely no chance of becoming his party's candidate for president, has felt free to speak his mind on a lot of subjects that the other guys won't.

He's really someone who's evidently only infamous in the US.

Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

I thought the topic was "The Way of AI". You know, Artificial Intelligence. I was hoping for a better laptop.

F John - You are definitely not sharp if you can confuse Al with Janet. :D

It is notable how the guys at the back of the pack with nothing to lose will say what they want and can be specific...

Best,

I don't care much about Al Sharpton, but the guy between Kerry and Lieberman sure looks familiar:

I thought it meant Alabama. :roll:
