MONDAY MUSIC - October 13, 2025 - A Deep Thoughts Edition. And music.

There've been a few interesting conversations over the past few days about various things music. I, of course, have thoughts to share ....

[Please note that for the first portion of this stream, I was somewhat distracted by a SpaceX Starship test mission. I have always been fascinated by space exploration, and always will be.]
