I knew there was a reason I'd been avoiding this thread...but here's my chance to turn it into a musical one! Seems there would have been a call for manatees in ancient Egypt, as evidenced by this round, which was created by Moondog, evidently after reading a history book while in an altered state of consciousness:
Nero's expedition up the Nile Failed Because the water hyacinths Had clogged the river Denying Nero's vessels passage Through the Sud of Nubia
If you ever get a chance to hear this sung, it's awesome--the only round I know with jazz chords!
Aloha, Mark (you remember, manatees eat water hyacinths, and...oh, the hell with it, you figure it out)
