" I did think I had explained my point of view. honestly mate"
Hardly "honestly" Al - honesty very rarely comes into your argument.
You have just accused me of maligning old songwriters by "sitting in judgement" on them - you widened that by accusing me of sitting in judgement "over a whole lot of other people as well."
I asked for examples of this - you have given me none, and nor will you, because there are none.
It is obviously a wast of time to ask you to prove your accusation or withdraw it, that's the kind of guy you appear to be -
Remember what happened to Pinnochio when he didn't tell the truth!
A SALUTARY WARNING
And you now have a little Jimminy Cricket chirruping on your shoulder, "Jim, is a comedian, he is very funny".
"I asked the world if it would change the meaning of the word folk so Jim and Mike"
You are the one who has changed the meaning of the word Muskie and you haven't even bothered to qualify those changes with anything other than abuse and distortion
