[SurroundSound] Re: "Don't Shoot Me..." and other unreleased Elton John 5.1 mixes

I *totally* agree with RealAfrica - I cannot stand FaceBook! The
interface is a piece of shit and, frankly, I am damn sick and tired of
people and companies relying on FaceBook to present themselves to the
world. And no, I do NOT want to have to sign-in to FB in order to
post my resume to a company's website. IMHO, folks spend far too much
time "friending" each other and such instead of making *real*
friends. We have definitely taken a major step backwards in our
social interaction skills by relying on sites such as FB, Twitter, and
such.

Just the other day, I saw two 20-somethings sitting *next* to each
other on a couch, furiously pounding away on their smartphones. As it
turns out, they were texting each other - they couldn't be bothered to
actually speak to one another. Truly sad....
