Yes Steve it says "One of the few troubles with forums is that it is so easy to get the wrong meaning of what someone posts" :grin::grin::grin:

Thanks Colin; I hope you're not referring to me in this context?
Do you think I'm misunderstanding what this guy posts? If so, please let me know and I'll try to better understand his posts--if that's at all possible!

Not referring to anyone Steve, it is just a generalisation, and one particular thing which causes all sorts of problems, I think we all get hold of the wrong end of the stick at times even with the use of smileys, I posted the same message in English and Russian, just being a smart arse

I agree
Some people when my emoticons were happy they felt offended...Maybe I should use another language... Many people feel offended all the time...Is this my problem? Is this their problem? I agree with my friend with his Russian message...The way you say showing your face with a smile to somebody and writing it is not the same...I'm not a chatter...I don't know how to manage "just" written language unless I am descriptive and writing a book. I wasn't very nice when I spoke about Swan lake but I took care to say...IT IS MY OPINION....If I offended somebody I appologize...even though many people do not consider this last phrase (IT IS MY OPINION) ....(why?).
The best is to say nothing..."everything is....nice" (laconic)...hide your opinion...people don't like it...do not even go...or...do not speak...people will say you are smart...they will love you...don't say what you think. Say rather what they want to hear...this is the key.
No emoticon here...Nobody ever said Martin you are smart...Maybe I'm not...(chuckles).
Martin, a bit sad.

I'm typing that I can understand where Alban Berg is coming from, with his attitude about not liking some music, Swan Lake in particular.
Obviously, Mr. Berg is happy to include modern technology in his listening experience, what can be considered new instruments.
I'm kind of the same.
My most extreme listening experience is listening to Jimi Hendrix on headphones.
Hearing the music move left and right, up and down and all around, is incredible.
Even though the rest of the world moved on through analog to digital, and Jimi couldn't,
I have yet to hear as complex and tonally challenging music and lyrics as he left us.
So I could look at all other music as not being mixed for headphones, or very limited in that respect.
But that's just stereo headphones, and the world is more than just stereo.
So I've got something new to go for, wanting to be electric symphonic.
As Alban Berg is now living in Quebec, and is admitting his love of atonal music, even cacophony more than being a Francophony,
maybe he can watch that Quebec movie about people who get off on being in car crashes and making love,
in the midst of all that carcophony and mayhem.
That would be getting atonal with an almost tunnel vision.
Jim Morrison of The Doors used to get into car crashes with his wife in almost every city he played.
Jimi Hendrix wrecked two Corvettes one summer.
If I lose it in a vehicle, you'll hear about someone who hit a cathedral and took out a big organ.

Should I answer this?
Did I say I love cacophony? I have no idea what movie you're talking about...we have many movies..About Jimi Hendrix, he's history! I liked his music when I was very young...Now, it is a souvenir...My son is a rock artist. You can find his name easily on google, just type john nathaniel. Please do not mixt atonal, dodecaphonic ans cacophonic( bad sound). For me atonal music (wrong name) and dodecaphonic music are awesome...
Many tonal things are wonderful, I love almost all Tchaikovsky's operas: Evgeny Onieguin, Pikovaia Dama, Cherevichky, Orpitchnik, Mazeppa, etc...I love Glinka and Rimsky-Korsakov...I just don't like Tchaikovsky's ballets.
That's all for now.

I think the movie to which John is referring might be "Crash", which is based on a novelette by the British science-fiction writer J.G. Ballard. I'm not sure if that's the correct title of the movie, but that is the name of the written work.
