Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

You mean there's hope for humanity left? Wonder how that will work out after we've killed ourselves off? Pessimist me? Sure, but that doesn't change the truth. We will all be dead in the next fifty years. Sorry, it's too late to change it. We simply can't change fast enough.

Anthropologist/geneticists Have proven a rather interesting fact of human history.

The human race has been pruned back to well below 5000 individuals...world wide. This "die-back" has occurred at least 5 times.

We now have what? 71/2 Billion people competing for resources..Say we kill off 7 billion 400,million
Nature is still going to have to run down a hundred million or so.

History tells that such a die back is not extinction.
Human conditions after the plague years are found to be far more prosperous and innovative.

Why because Nature springs back into life generation every when and where she can.
Far fewer mouths to feed on the same soil, far fewer hunters in the woods meas a far greater likely hood of success.
If we had but 10,000,000 people this world would be paradise.
One might say that next time we will fall far further and we will have to make our come back with far less to work with..
Say only 100,000 survive and for the next 3 generations half of us continue to die..and no one makes it past 50 years.
That's 150 years and around 12,000 people.
More that twice then number we need to kick start the human race.
This to shall pass. How and when, no man knows

I think Rick made the guitar playing mechanical on purpose, because he is trying [both sonically and visually] to demonstrate the high complexity of the chord progressions in that song, and the guitar is a good visual medium, perhaps easier to show than a keyboard. If he were actually performing it for an audience, it wouldn't sound like that.

Here is a video of the original song.

Thanks for the insight. Was in the middle of posting back and power went out. No air conditioning in 98 degrees. I had forgotten how oppressive heat can be.

Hoping to make it to 2022. I have a 1922 Peace silver dollar that needs the anniversary. And drat, somehow it got out of protective plastic and is tarnished in an ugly manner. Cleaning it will remove all numismatic value. If it ain't ALWAYS something...?

So Dan lives in the spot with the consistently cleanest (by far) air in the Puget Sound. And he has AIR CONDITIONING to boot?

The wind is from the South at 10 mph and it's 65F out there. I face South and it's freakin' 94F in my apt at 4:40 AM Tuesday. With Moderate Air Quality to boot. Who do I sue?

Very interesting. Maybe 5000 will rise again. But maybe none.

There are quite a few air conditioning options...Pick one.We are only nibbling at what's to come...soon (less than ten years)it will be air condition or die.

But modern air C. can only lower ambient by 20 degrees. Other wise the air coming out would have to be truly frigid. I look for teck to improve as the world heats and heaps upon us.

At your age you should cling to cool for dear life!!
But you can't now! Because there's not an air conditioner to be had for love or money in the North west.

Patti told me of a guy that drove his truck to Calif. and brought a half dozen for his neighbors.
Can you imagine how his popularity jumped upon arrival!

We only need 500 to avoid "Founders disease" from inbreeding. We may behave stupidly when in captivity, But remember out forefathers came to power when Saber-toothed tigers roam the Earth.
Were pretty sure Dad is what happened to the woolly mammoth

The difference between Wild and domesticated man is almost unimaginable.We do quite well in the wild.

Even to this day there is no animal so elusive that men can not hunt or trap it.
Personally I think we will always stand a pretty good chance in the survival lotto.

She's harmonizing with herself. It'd be great if someone else in the band could harmonize with her, but I see no microphones other than hers. In other words she sings a passage using a set of notes once, then sings it again using different notes. When her voices are mixed together the sound is much more interesting this way.

Harmony is probably Europe's gift to the world of music. Maybe.

Ah so. So what I hear is her time warping with herself.
When I did that they called schizophrenic! ":O)
