Mister told me, that someone told him, that the terms "acoustic" and "unplugged" are now passe, and that the proper term is "organic." Has anyone else heard of this? It's news to me. :-)

I think I've heard it on NPR, Kim. In looking at google, several hits come up, including this one. If you scroll down there is an interesting bit about a song they are doing about a train wreck back in the 1920's with an audio/movie link to hear it: Collective Unconsciousness who call their music 100% pure organic.:-)

Well, I'm sure most of us here can say that we were organic when organic wasn't cool. :-)

In certain circles it was once chic to describe a painting as 'organic' when what you really meant was fecal.

perhaps this thread is organic?
or-gan-ic; 1. an organic substance: as a : a fertilizer of plant or animal origin . . .
5 : of, or relating to, or constituting the law by which a government or organization exists 6. Law: of or pertaining to the constitution or structure of a thing;7. Law: of or pertaining to the constitutional or essential law or laws organizing the government of a state.

***if the above is true, then is much easier for me to understand exactly what our government is composed of--er, uh, is that decomposed? er, uh, maybe de compost?******

Well, politics, comprising the root word poly, meaning many, as in polygamy, polytheistim, and ticks, which are blood-sucking parasites.

   Then what is music played on organs, or the organ grinder's music, with the little monkey? I thought that was organic.

So I guess it's safe to say this expression hasn't really caught on much?
