Berlin Philharmonic playing Beethoven's ninth, at the Brandenburg Gate. You can watch it live free by registering with the Berlin Philharmonic. (Google it.) Pretty big deal when you read the history of the Brandenburg Gate. They're in the third movement, so it's a while 'til the "Ode to Joy". Even if you're not a classical music aficionado, awesome stuff.

I believe in science and I’m an insufferable [censored] Actually, BBC is pretty damn good "You Cannot Simultaneously Be Politically Correct And Intellectually Honest!"

It was amazing. 'Sorry I missed the first two movements. The new conductor looks a little like Robin Williams to me. Video guys could have panned to the brass more, but that's cause I'm a trumpet player. The quartet, and the whole choir, was incredible. And I don't even like German as a language. The lows and the highs of the human race can really be tracked in that culture and country!
