Thread Name: Tom Lehrer- Your favorite song? What's he doing?
Subject: RE: Tom Lehrer
That "So Long Mom" that was written for World War III did get mentioned. Trouble is, we all have so many favorites that listing very many means some get lost in the list. That and several others are quite timely. I wouldn't rewrite the introductions, as someone suggested. They contribute today to a sense of history (we've been here before) and serve as a reminder that we're repeating ourselves.

I wonder if the current administration in Washington has ever heard any of these? And understands them?
