[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8683051, member: 6704184"] That's a [B]lot[/B] of assumptions that aren't supported by anything more than common association of traits. Anarcho-communist communities of tight knit families that share resources and challenges and communally raise young are just as likely. I'd say they're just as likely, but the potential irony isn't lost on me. We all have our biases. Not only that, but the styles that have come up since the advent of the internet haven't even gone away in the sense that those have. Classical has gone nowhere, btw, other than to transition from the music we go to the venue to hear, to the music we hear at the music and judge the thing we are there to see in part by, and like everything else.... It's all part of the new music. All of it. Listen to Coheed and Cambria's new album, and you'll hear elements from musical traditions and movements from every decade back to at least the 70's, as well as classical symphonies and the like. And that will only become more and more the case over the next several decades. I sell autoparts for a living, and I'm here to respectfully let you know that you are objectively incorrect about this. You can, if you own a popular vehicle like a honda civic or a ford pickup, buy relacement parts for your manual window control lever at literally any autoparts store in the United States. And I could sell my beat up 1995 toyota t100 pickup for $2k right now, no problem. as much as 10k if I spent about a thousand fixing her up, mechanically and cosmetically. Heck, do you know how recently cars in the US still came with the option for manual everything? maybe if we switch years to decades. Maybe. This one doesn't especially move me, because it's not like someone can't make a product that mimics uranium glass. It's not like green, semi-transparent glassware will go extinct. [/QUOTE]
