    I think the song in the video sounds much better this way too.

    Recklessly interfering with Darwin’s natural selection process, thereby extending the life cycle of dim-witted ignorami; thus perpetuating and magnifying the danger to us all, by enabling them to breed and walk amongst us, our children and loved ones.

    I read hack-a-day too.

    That turntable is twenty different kinds of kickass. Wish I had the skill and patients to do something like that.
