We don't normally get drawn into too many side issues here, and we certainly try to avoid politics, but tonight I think it's appropriate we pass on our thoughts to the victims and families of those who have been caught up in the carnage in Paris.
While some argue over who's the best gutarist, what's the best album, France has declared a national state of emergency and there are 100+ music fans who have been killed and more held hostage at the Bataclan concert hall in central Paris where The Eagles of Death Metal were playing.
The world has gone quite mad and life is far too short for this sort of shit.

I'm glad you wrote what you wrote, well worth saying and well said. I have a pen pal in Paris and was relieved to learn she was home during the incidents, but so many more people weren't, and the whole tragic affair is just sickening. Perhaps someday humans can overcome their hatred and intolerance, but I am not optimistic. -David

Pat so eloquently stated, those disagreements about who's better or what is best seem so small and petty when we see what has happened. Sad.. the world has turned upside down, lets hope it rights itself soon. David I am glad your friend is OK.
