Never one to mince words, Charles Ives put it another way;
"Son of a bitch, when you hear music like this, sit up and take it like
a man!"

In order not to get whacked for going off topic, I'd think if Edgar
Varese were alive today, he would be using MOTM.

I'm off. I'm going to look for a hand-cranked air raid siren on Ebay...
