              I'm dancing around the house as no one is awake yet. Always lots of Latin dance tunes pumping through the streets here.

                    Of the music? That would be fairly difficult to do.

                        Ah... I was thinking of some elaborate propane burner contraption to visualize the music.

                          I always suspected the initial studies were bunk, especially since they were just correlational.

                            Right, for example, the majority of dead people don't move. Doesn't imply that the lack of movement killed them.

                              I would hope that ALL dead people don't move. If they're moving, they're not dead. If they are undead, we need to make them completely dead...

                              There are many subtle levels of dead, you know.
