@hthaller - Love ya Howard, and can’t disagree with that quote. But I had not heard of this guy before, and I wish that perhaps I hadn’t, if I’m reading the Interwebs aright🤷🏻‍♂️ The difficulty with “reality” being what it is these days. ---

Completely agree with you, Elk. But T.S. is an economist and philosopher with a very big brain, not and never a politician. I refuse to talk politics lately. ---

He is indeed a fascinating man. He has, however, taken a number of political positions, including candidate endorsements, which some will agree with, some not. I expect this is to which @badbeef refers. If anyone is curious, there is a great deal of information about Mr. Sowell readily available with a Google search. ---

> [@Elk](#): > > If anyone is curious, there is a great deal of information about Mr. Sowell readily available with a Google search. If anyone is interested, I’d recommend his own website/words for an undistorted view. I have disagreed with him many times on candidates, but I’ve never felt injured or “unsafe”. ---

> [@badbeef](#): > > Can’t recall what Concert Pitch was popular in his day. May not have been A440. In Mozart’s time, concert A was 422Hz to 424Hz. Pitch kept rising over the years and is now plus or minus 440Hz. String players often opine their instruments are more powerful at a higher tonal center. ---
