However, I do present uncomfortable facts and accurate observations about people and today's society that most folks have never paused to examine.

It makes folks such as you uncomfortable or angry. It's just like telling someone who hasn't bathed in over year that they smell - badly - and getting an outraged reaction.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

Some other common techniques used then and used now are retrograde motion, retrograde inversion, augmentation, diminution, and so on.

What's particularly sad is that YOU - people who grew up on rock and roll* and zero music education - are absolutely ignorant of these simple, elementary, kindergarden music techniques.

It's not completely your fault. Music education's been deleted from schools. Heck - I understand that they've now also deleted history and social studies from schools.

Not only do you folks here not know what inversion is, you probably don't know what the Civil War --- or the Cold War --- was. At least some of may've heard those terms - but you're not really sure what they mean.

What you're really, really good at is tech.

And - texting - tattoos, loud motorcycles, multiple dogs, piercings -----

*To be clear - the phrase "rock and roll" includes all of it's vile forms, from cowntry to cRap to techno to hard rock to harder rock to still harder rock to soft rock to medium rock, etc. etc.
