What's your age John? Perhaps the music one is exposed to is

No not the word gottasnip. The word after Opera. Must not type it.

Yes, your "years of cynical experience with usenet" must have
conditioned your behavior. That's what keeps you always on guard and
confrontational. The thread I was speaking of is "Making a Sphere" but
no matter, since you mean what you say.
The gif you link to above, I have seen it before. Other than it has a
nice female familiarity, I do not know what to make of it. The y-axis
m must be for minutes? Not enough information, as is. What is the
source of time contraction and expansion?
