If only it were true.
I recently received email with the subject line "Geek Music Library New
Webpage." Suddenly my mind was swirling. Was it a library of music by geeks,
a whole collection devoted to works by the likes of They Might Be Giants
and the Talking Heads? Was it music about geeks, and I couldn't think of
anything other than the Dr. Demento hit "Pencil Neck Geek"? Or was it simply
a library for music geeks, people such as myself and those chronicled in
High Fidelity who obsess over the minutia of music?
Sadly, it was none of those. It was just a typo in an announcement about
a Greek music library. The email, from the library in Greece, had other misspellings,
but I can't scoff because the writer's English is still far better than my
Greek.
