  What Are The Best Progressive Rock Albums?

  CAN – They have some good stuff in the early seventies. (Tago Mago, Ege Bamyasi). Also, Pink Floyd’s Atom Heart Mother wasn’t included earlier, and I think it’s an amazing album, along with Animals and Meddle.

  Can anyone reccommend a decent, free video file converter?

  I’ve found many free video converters pop up on ‘giveaway of the day’ (http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/). I agree with DominicX when it comes to the unpredictable nature of video converters, I’ve went through too many that crash out and/or take way too long to convert small files.

  Did Al Gore lie to me?

  I personally do not know what to believe, but global warming is not new, and actually I think people have started calling it climate change… Anyway, I think the first 50 seconds of the Penn & Teller Bullshit episode on being green (and most of the episode) points out a disturbing trend of driving guilt into the head of all Americans. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhnFT_as1eU Oh and here’s the article Penn is referring to (Time Magazine circa 1974): http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,944914,00.html Either way, things are changing, and I don’t think there’s anything we can do about it. I hate SUVs, but gas will be high no matter what I think of SUVs. And people will still keep driving them. As Kurt Vonnegut would say “Those who believe in telekinetics, raise my hand.” On that note, some things just aren’t worth arguing about.

  Who is better, Radiohead or Coldplay? ...why?

  Thanks for the nod whatthefluther! My pick is Radiohead. Although I have to admit I like Coldplay’s first album (except for ‘Yellow’) and their latest work with Brian Eno on ‘Viva La Vida’. Radiohead will always have my heart, but I also know some people will just never like Radiohead. Even Chris Martin (Coldplay’s leading man) believes Radiohead is better than his own band. On that note, Radiohead wins. Chris Martin on Radiohead: “We’re like an eager dog just yapping around their heels,’ he adds ‘and they’re trying to kick us away,” he jokes. “It’s like unrequited love. I’m in love with a lot of things. Some of those things love me back. And some of them don’t—and one of them is Radiohead.” That said, if the discussion were “Who do you think would be nicer in person?” I’d probably say Coldplay.
