I'm almost sure @Zeeba Neighba has a different perspective on the pressure to keep waits short and the pressure to keep each appointment to no more than 10-15 minutes in duration.

We're lucky to get as much of his attention as we do. After all, he is a well-regarded specialist.

Indeed, we hold him in well-specialized regard.

So, that's where he's been. Stop holding him in the well.

No, I don't. I don't really watch movies or read novels anymore (presuming it is such media).

It was more rhetorical than anything else.
As part of my ongoing, neverending home-tidyng project, this morning, among other tasks, I shelved a few more CDs. Among them were 3:44 by Jay-Z, which had been in the VW until I rotated out the batch of CDs that had been there for too long. My CDs are shelved alphabetically, as many collectors probably do.
At the end of the Jay-Z CDs, are the CDs by musicians/bands that begin with "Jazz". The first such is "Xenoblast" by The Jazz Mandolin Project
Seeing Jay-Z next to Jazz Mandolin Project shook me for a moment.

I think you're an hour early
Now watch Jazzy slap me down by telling me that 3:44 is the specially stripped down, bonus track release of 4:44

D'oh. I think my subconcious was speaking. I awakened around 3:45 this morning. Not by choice.

Quote from Apple Music head Oliver Schusser:
The arrogance displayed in that statement is breathtaking.
My opinion is that Apple as a company has atrocious taste in music, and will invariably recommend the most mainstream, pop, commercial and trashy music possible.

Apple Music’s Next Era — And the New Leader Spurring Global Growth
In 15 months, Oliver Schusser streamlined Apple’s premier service and united its divided ranks. Is a “grown-up†what the company needs to chart a course to global growth and profitability?

Ricardo Kocadag from the Federal Institute for Materials Research invented it: the record made of concrete! In the BLN.FM studio he did a test run. The engineer grabbed the disc on a normal turntable. And we can say: Yes, definitely! We clearly recognized "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" from the Rolling Stones.
But why make a record of concrete? Ricardo Kocadag and his team want to prove that concrete can do more than you think. In any case, the "ultra-high performance concrete" that they have developed. The material consists not only of the usual mixture - cement, sand and water - but hardens by various admixtures and powder particularly robust and can be much finer work. Until now, concrete was no material for filigree imprints, fineness or even musicality. But for a turntable to play sounds, the embossing in the grooves must be so accurate that it can be picked up by the needle of the turntable. At the same time the 6mm thin disc must be very stable. Ricardo Kocadag concrete record proves that it is possible.
Nevertheless, the future of the concrete remains its use in the construction of bridges, skyscrapers and roof structures. The new Super Concrete withstands five times the pressure, absorbs less water and is 30-50% lighter. He should not be introduced as a vinyl substitute, there are no plans. Whether the concrete slab sounds competitive? Hear it yourself when Ricardo Kocadag plays the concrete slab in the BLN.FM studio.

So hypothetically speaking, you consider it immaterial?
