    Indeed it would my son. Indeed it would indeed.

    Thing is though, I'm y'know, a busy pope, y'know, and, y'know, if it's all the same, y'know, to the brethren and sistren of, y'know, the DoI, it would make my job a bit more, well, busy trying to, y'know, be in two places at once. Now God, She's really good at that kind of thing, what with being omnipresent 'n all. Just that, y'know, I'm, y'know, not. Omnipresent that is...

     

    Not complaining. Oh dearie me no. Not a bit of it. Perish the thought. Nothing further from, y'know, etc. Just, y'know, something my dear friends in the aforesaid DoI might, y'know, want to take into consideration.

     

    Y'know?

    (1) Which end do I hold it?

    (2) Which way up does it go?

    (3) Why does it have that thingy in the middle?

    (4) What is the best colour?

    (5) Progressive attenuation in the studio environment, a light discourse on at what point(s) during the epic journey of the alternate compression and rarefaction of air and its conversion into binary data should said attenuation take place: discuss.

    judging from what you're saying its seems the trolls are here ,

     

    Q, why would peeps go to such lenghts over a bedroom bassist & a story(s) they will probably deem as "all" fiction & do not want other peeps to hear or believe ?

     

    the dark side of success, even failure, is strewn with jealousy & narcissismimage.png.623e52f7b77876952526a33dd667c16a.png

     

     

     

     

     

    If I had any clue what you're on about I might be inclined to take offence.

     

    As it is, I don't, so we're good. 👍

     

    Speculum decorum my son.

    Last contribution from me in this thread...

     

    I posted a Youtube video that seemed to me to chime with @skankdelvar's OP, and was posted in the spirit that he posted his. Call me naive, but I saw no coercion in the video I posted. I saw a talented 6-year-old able to sing and play multiple instruments to a high standard, not to mention being able to use a studio environment to overlay multiple tracks. I saw it as a Good Thing.

     

    Had I known I would become involved in an argument a discussion about the education system in South Korea I would have saved myself the aggravation.

     

    That said:

     

     

    • Whilst I would accept that self-harm and suicide are an issue for the country, I would politely point out that the same or similar could be said of many other countries around the world (including the UK by the way - perhaps this document will make the point). That being the case, judging the success of a country's education system by the criterion of not having its population commit suicide appears to suggest that pretty much every country on the planet is failing its children to some degree. Do we really believe that?

     

    • Furthermore, the rate of actual suicides among school-age children appears from the chart above (acknowledgement to @Stub Mandrel for posting it) to have been around 1 in 100,000 in South Korea in 2012, since when it appears to have gone down.

     

    I do so love to be involved in discussions where participants understand the matters whereof they speak.

     

    I'm out.

    Hotel Coercion, more like.

    Sorry, but I watched this with an unhappy mix of admiration and horror.

     

    I think it's South Korean. One of the best - and most successful - education systems in the world; just sayin'...

     

    Not so sure we're in any position to pass judgement TBH.

    Soldered a new jack onto a cable and it now sounds darker than before. Why?
