Mr. Stroh was also my 4th grade teacher. I got to be a banker that year, along with the Gimcracker himself.

I would’ve known the Danse Macabre one. And how would I have known it? Because Mr. Stroh was my 4th grade teacher. He also taught me about bassoons and the voting process. I believe he was a Dukakis supporter.

Hey sweet, it finally exists! Seeing as how I wrote this post about 10 years ago, it’s perfect timing. Now I just have to test it when my coworkers aren’t around to see if it really works.

You mean like this? Or maybe like this? ...and that's just off the top of my head...

You’re like my own personal jukebox-encyclopedia of all things wise.

You could have just *asked* me the name of the song, Brian.

But then we wouldn’t have this awesome post here. Also, I love your idea about computers with infinite song indexes…I think it will be a reality within the next 10 years. There are already books out there that index the first few notes of a motif and then show you what piece it’s from. (e.g., Beethoven’s 5th would be G G G E-flat)

But that is nothing compared to the convenience of simply humming into a computer. Wow. I can’t wait.
