i brought up Adams because "twote" reminded me of this passage from Restaurant at the End of the Universe about the complications that time travel introduces to verb tenses.  i remember tears streaming down my face from laughter the [font=Verdana]first time i read that[/font], and people looking at me as if i was insane.

I still need to get into the new record more but it’s proved tough slogging so far….the new album is almost amelodic!
