Got any interesting thoughts on a set of lyrics? Any that don't involve the word "indeed"? Find yourself struggling to decipher all those obtuse references Von makes? Read "1959 And All That" and still no clearer? Nope, us neither. Postcards found lying in a skip around the back of the Chemists can be found here... Don't say you weren't warned.

I've always thought it was Adult Oriented Rock as well.

(Still not sure what it means though - I've never seen any "older peoples CDs with warnings of strong language or violent themes, aren't they on teenagers favourite bands CDs) ?

Oh how I wish you were right but nuclear weapons are all too real.

How do you know? Are you a nuclear physicist who's been working on nuclear bombs and witnessed their successful detonation? If not, then you're a mere believer in what someone else says, not different of any religious person...
And from this dogmatic statement of yours, I can say you're not a physicist. :)
I'm not a nuclear physicist, no. However, confidence in the scientific method in general, and any given scientific finding in particular, is not at all comparable to faith in the untestable, contradictory and arbitrary claims of religion.

No, I'm not a nuclear physicist but I do know enough about physics to know that the science behind nuclear chain reactions is pretty settled and confirmed from multiple sources. I also think I probably know more physics than you do.

How do you explain the results of the double-slit experiment if quantum mechanics isn't true? How do you explain the photoelectric effect without QM? These are simple experiments that you can do in a student lab, or even at home.

I'm not going to bother with all the Tesla crankery you're coming out with; suffice it to say that the real reason that Tesla died in poverty is that a great many of his ideas were wrong.

Btw ageofmaya, this is The Heartland Forums Lyrics Section - Heartland is the unofficial discussion forum for all things around The Sisters of Mercy ....

and not the extended promotion platform for Tesla or whoever ... :wink: ...

Extended discussions of that kind belong into General Chat. How about you open a thread and throw all your extendes thought and ideas in there... ;D ...

I am absolutely sure, that :von: is not a Tesla adept and was so neither when he wrote any of his lyrics. So please ... have mercy ... :kiss: ...

it cant be hard in this day and age -and with the highly intelligent geek-wizards and technomancers amongst our membership- to pinpoint the location of this/any morons and just send the boys round?
to quote the UTR article on the disillusioned 'Sisters fan' who returned his Gegen Nazis patch: "the left have their shock-troops too..and we know where you live." :evil:
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"
