My bad; I didn't realize you were waiting for affirmation. "Crescent Moon," indeed (which I'm sort of surprised you knew since you've resisted adding it to the CST repertoire. I guess knowing a song's lyrics and liking a song are two different things).<br/><br/>Changing "infinite" to "infant" does change the vibe of the song quite a bit. "I'd hate to see where we would be in another thousand years from now without her" makes a lot less sense, for instance. Oops!

I haven't actually checked to see if I had the correct song. You've left me hangin' here for a good long while now, Charles.<br/><br/>You know, for a long, long time I thought that lyric was actually, "There's an age-old urge to find the infant." I never really understood that. For which infant was everyone so desperately searching?!? It makes more sense when it's "infinite." So was I right or what?

I find that I agree with your thoughts about the medium. There are no deadlines and one never really knows what people think about what is written and how many people read it. I check your blog daily, because I always find what you have to write interesting. <br/><br/>Lately I have found that it's easy to post a coupe times a week if all I do is put up some pictures.
