music you would like if you ever heard it

Post 220835 by compound eye deleted for the following reason: if this is looking for a post on the site itself it needs to go over to MetaTalk. If you want music suggestions you may need to make a more coherent post about it. -- jessamyn

Post 220043 by phoeniciansailor deleted for the following reason: This needs to be more of an answerable question and less of a complaint about TSA. Asking why there isn't open revolt is a pretty loaded starting point. -- jessamyn

Anyone feel like translating (a lot of) English lyrics into Spanish?

Post 219920 by DMelanogaster deleted for the following reason: Yeah, a full-fledged "translate this large body of text from scratch" sort of thing is more of a Jobs sort of deal than what Ask is really intended for. Feel free to put this up as a volunteer gig over there if you like. -- cortex

Where does a start-up team come together?

Post 219476 by parmanparman deleted for the following reason: This needs to be a lot clearer in terms of what the question is -- if it belongs here at all -- and requests for private communication is not what we do here. Perhaps Jobs is a better fit for this. -- taz
