The problem is that I actually support ownership of guns. But I don't
see where the original poster has got his delusional notion that the current
crazy airport security has any connection with it.

In fact, taking guns onboard commercial airliners in the US is very easy
and just requires your identifying them in your checked luggage. You
can't take guns in your carry-on, but you can't even take an allen wrench
in your carry on. Now, if they'd only ban cellphones and toys that make
loud beeping noises constantly for hours.

I just find it kind of amusing watching the guy thrashing around trying
to defend his connections between totally irrelevant things, both with
audio and politics. It's as if he lives in some different world than
the rest of us exist in.

Let's get back to the important stuff. Re. "disk" vs. "disc": I've
just been listening to a 78 by the Arthur Smith, "Guitar Boogie"; it's
on the Super Disc label. The record was released in 1946, according to
Wikipedia (the hit came two years later


It's a disque. It's played by a "disqueiere" at the disco club.
