November 25ths (400 years of...anxiety)
AI-analysis with GoogleNotebook is sometimes comical in its hallucinations. It's already started drinking for the holidays, Not that it's not interesting. But it's main purpose is to find patterns. So my including a 1974 article about David Bowie being in the studio tied it together with "historical facts". Well, ok, not exactly...thanks for finding that connection.
Hilarious: "You had to be a polymath just to keep your family fed and clothed."
I like how these hosts like everything.

11/25/1974
(From the article, "Bowie Meets Springsteen", published in The Drummer magazine)
"We arrived at Sigma Sound a little after eight. Producer Tony Visconti was arched over a mammoth soundboard, pressing buttons, being generally pleasant to the half-dozen engineers and musicians in the control room, and peering into the large windowed studio directly in front.
The album was practically finished. The first rough mix had been accomplished since Bowie recorded the basic tracks some weeks ago, and this week had been devoted to clean-ups and overdubs. This was the final night in the studio for the album; the final touches would now be made.
"I'm Only Dancing (She turns me on)" [subsequently released as "Hang On To Yourself"] was being played back....
"You know Barry Goldwater is resigning from politics to become President of a UFO organization... he's not really resigning from politics, he just realizes they can't keep it all secret much longer and he wants to be at the top when it breaks. It will break soon."
[11/25/2025: Even things we think are permanent and invincible always eventually break. Goldwater was also an interesting photographer. Typically it's the artist who makes a foray into politics, but after politics, it's back to the art. Also, Goldwater believed in UFOs and became the president of the Mutual UFO Network. It's all that looking at the sky and horizon].
