BeBop Posted July 5, 2013 Report Posted July 5, 2013 Just gotta say, this is a great thread/dialogue. It's why I keep coming 'round this forum. A challenging question. A prompt helpful reply. A gentle correction. And everyone's (seemingly) happy. Restores my faith in life online. Quote

As a coda: Here's Barry playing (and singing) his beautiful song "The Bird of Red and Gold." The lyric is his as well. Sums up his cosmology as well as anything. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rT5RYPGd60 Quote

I'd bought that CD in Des Moines a few years ago, when I still carried a portable CD player. Popped it into the player now knowing what was coming. (I can't watch the YouTube from this computer, but, believe me, I can HEAR Harris as clear as yesterday.) Quote
