Re: [Aroid-l] Chirality - Flanders and Swann

From: Theodore Held <oppenhauser2001 at gmail.com> on 2011.11.01 at 21:53:23(22254) Isn't it interesting that a fair percentage of this modest list is familiar, fans even, of these two jolly folks from 50 years ago! It's somewhat an age thing and a little not, since younger people may not have ever been exposed, but I know of many folks my age who haven't a clue about who these guys are. One might postulate that a certain mental construct leans one toward both F & S type songs and growing fancy plants. Too many variables to prove one way or another, but fun to think about. By the way, the Madeira song is sort of on the edge.
