I've reading all the posts about other guitarists such as Eddie Van Halen, and the guy is GOOD, I mean REAL GOOD. I just wanted to throw another name out there just to see what you would all say. MIke Mushok, if you don't know who he is, he is the guitarist for Staind. I only mention him for a couple reasons, the guy studied under Tony McAlpine, and the guy can sherd he just chooses no to. I just love the way he uses what he learned to better the song on a whole, but i still love JS the best, but that's another post for another time. I find him to be a very talented guitar player, but very underrated because of the band he's in.
As for the Kirk Hammet question a littlw while back, Kirk was taught by Joe for six months while or before ( can't remeber off hand) "Kill Them All" was recorded. Joe helped him with a few playing details and opened his mind a little bit when it came to Kirk's solos. Thats from a Guitar World interview of Kirk Hammet a couple years back. I'm trying to find it for reference. So I can correct myself if I ended up being wrong, I'm running on pure memory right now :)

Zinc: the "cool test" was great. I passed with flying colours!
Suzie/Estrela: congratulations on learning the art of posting links! If Austin were here he'd be very pleased.
Civgeek: I never thought of copy/pasting the green bit! I usually type it out from memory and copy/paste the url.
Stevee T: "Joe's always blowin his socks off anyway...why bother puttin any on...lol" d'aaaaahhhhh ha ha
Ibanez Fox: better than running on diluted memory
Exhausting Austin:One thing I noticed from using the advanced search to find posts addressed to me is that a lot of people type "Ibenez" (which contains the letters BEN) instead of "Ibanez"...other words I find a lot are Clarky and Yoda's "bend", Cuthbert and Namm Man's "benefit" and also "Robben Ford"...

While NASA fared better than many federal agencies in U.S. President George W. Bush's 2006 budget request, the White House is not seeking as much money for the U.S. space agency as previously planned.
The White House is seeking $16.45 billion for NASA in the 2006 budget. That's an increase of 2.4 percent over what the U.S. space agency has in its 2005 budget, but still about $500 million less than what the agency had been expecting.

Study: Why Americans Have Bad Rhythm
Sorry, citizens of North America, but babies have better rhythm than you.
Blame the two-step, Elvis or Barney (and if you don't know about this purple dinosaur, substitute just about any kids' song here).
A new study looked into why people in some parts of the world seem better at grasping offbeat rhythms compared to people in North America. The problem appears to be at least partly cultural. The beat, it seems, is beat out of us.
The study would seem complex to those not musically inclined. But here's the upshot:
Throughout our lives, the music we listen to shapes and tunes our perception in a manner specific to the music of our culture, said Erin Hannon of Cornell University.
"We showed that young infants, who have much less experience listening to music, lack these perceptual biases and thus respond to rhythmic structures that are both familiar and foreign," Hannon said.
The study is detailed in the January issue of Psychological Science, a journal of the American Psychological Society.
Hannon and Sandra Trehub of the University of Toronto began their study with knowledge that other studies had shown people in North America struggle to grasp irregular rhythms. Balkan music proves troubling, for example. So the researchers studied 50 college students, mostly from the United States and Canada, and 17 first- or second-generation Bulgarian and Macedonian immigrants. Songs with simple meters were made more complex, and complex songs were simplified.
The North Americans recognized when things got trickier, but couldn't tell when things got simpler. The immigrants figured both out.
A similar test was done on North American 64 infants, six and seven months old. The tykes' skills were judged based on whether they look at or away from monitors showing the rhythmic changes. The infants, like the immigrants, did just fine.
To keep the beat, you'd want to forego country, rock, pop and even simple jazz typically performed in piano bars, Hannon told LiveScience. And painful as it might be, you'd also need to skip elevator music, the Barney song, and even that old favorite, "Wheels on the Bus."

Cost of Spam Revealed
February 3: NEW YORK (AP) _ Time wasted deleting junk e-mail costs American businesses nearly $22 billion a year, according to a new study from the University of Maryland. A telephone-based survey of adults who use the Internet found that more than three-quarters receive spam daily. The average spam messages per day is 18.5 and the average time spent per day deleting them is 2.8 minutes. The loss in productivity is equivalent to $21.6 billion per year at average U.S. wages, according to the National Technology Readiness Survey produced by Rockbridge Associates, Inc., and the Center for Excellence in Service at Maryland's business school. The study, to be released Thursday, also found that 14 percent of spam recipients actually read messages to see what they say, and 4 percent of the recipients have bought something advertised through spam within the past year. The random survey of 1,000 U.S. adults was conducted in November and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. -- Associated Press

Why Chimpanzees Don't Get Haircuts
December 31: Long ago, humans had fur. Over time we lost it. What remains is, for some at least, a tuft of hair atop the head and a little more in other places. But is hair the same thing as fur? Not so, say researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. They found practically no studies on the topic. But they point out that human leg hair doesn't grow when transplanted to the head, but head hair on the leg (somebody tried this -- we don't know why) needs constant trimming. Further, our head hair has a different keratin content than chimpanzees which, the scientists point out, never need haircuts. Why did we evolve to look so naked, but with those sometimes curly locks? "If I had to guess, I would think a lot of this somehow has to do with sexual selection," said anthropologist Glenn Conroy. "But how continuously growing hair plays into sexual selection is anybody's guess." Well, chimps are cute, but …

After the Feast: Americans Toss Out Half Their Food
December 21: It's no secret the United States is a throwaway society, but the quantify of food that'll be tossed out after the holiday feast -- or any other day -- might surprise you. A recent study found 40 to 50 percent of all U.S. food ready for harvest never gets eaten. Anthropologist Timothy Jones of the University of Arizona spent 10 years studying the flow of food from farms and orchards to grocery stores, kitchens and landfills. Jones says vegetable growers are like riverboat gamblers, playing the commodity market odds and, upon losing a bet, simply plowing a field under. The average household tosses out 14 percent of the food it buys. A quarter of that is never even opened. The cost per household: $590 a year just in meat, fruits, vegetables and grain products.
