It's the sizers that aren't accurate. Most roller bags fit in the bins. Airlines don't enforce the sizer limits, do they? I can't remember the last time I saw this happen.

Dylan's gospel albums are classics. Documentaries have been made about how good they are. IIRC "Shot of Love" is one of Dylan's favorites of his own records. Many fans rejected them at the time because of the culture sho

Agreed about the others but wouldn't the Okies be part of the Scots-Irish strain he covers?

I'm not sure how similar these are but this reminds me of the Soft White Underbelly series of interviews: https://www.youtube.com/c/SoftWhiteUnderbelly/videos

> At that point your stocks (and other assets like houses) have their cost-basis adjusted to the current price. Is this a special provision that kicks in only on death (and not before)? How long has that been in place?

You've probably learned it more thoroughly than I have, or maybe we have different tastes. I find it just impossible to get into, it all rubs me the wrong way. It is so overcomplicated, and unlispy in the way that FORMAT and LOOP are u
