Sounds like Bertrand Russell was a proponent of free love.

The video was great.

One of the strongest proponents! And very glad you liked the video - it seemed a no-brainer once I'd put it on the playlist.

I'm not sure exactly sure why the song ended up on my playlist, but the minute it did I knew what the Detour was going to be. I'd not seen it in years. Glad you liked today's issue!

Very glad you like it! Yes - it’s a rather obscure one when placed among the others. This might in part be because it was so central to the Spartans - and Athenians are the ones remembered best.
