I love Mozart, he was brilliant I guess that is ok, classical valium. I listen to classical because with out it, as someone once said, life would be a mistake. Try Rachmaninov’s second piano concerto, with Richter. There are little recordings like this…

For what length of “used to”? I ordered Apache not to allow anyone to access the comment script without a referrer in November. AFAIK this isn’t a widely-adopted trick; it was superbly effective for a couple months but is becoming less so.
Your referrer shows up as “unknown” on th’ sitemeter so this is almost certainly the problem. Hmm.

No relevant ones that I’m aware of. Not only did it used to work at the Gabbro, though, it also works everywhere else…
Did you change a something?

Oh dear! I certainly don’t wish to meddle with your browser preference. Are there settings on it to change, so it starts sending a referrer instead of a blank string? I have a complete software overhaul in the offing, including better (or at least different) anti-comment-spam measures, but its onning is still a ways off.
It’s looking less likely that I’ll move far enough north to mooch off Canadian taxpayers’ radio, sigh.

(D’oh! Now that there are comments I have discovered that it is only Konqueror (my browser of choice or preference) which 500s every time.)
The BBC’s radio output is funded by the TV license feee, which I do not pay. Bargain!

Hey, I likes me my classical valium on the drive home! If only they wouldn’t play so much Mozart… but all the other public stations do news then so there’s not much choice.

Ownership society benefits those who own most.
That said, try to not get too upset at the Public Stations, they are the only Bastions of culture left ont he air waves really. The Classical stations Ihear on radio tend to be valium like and iuntended for stressed out workers. I like to listen to interesting music, and public stations are the only hope…
