      You say that now, but some day you’ll be at a social gathering with a bunch of GenX-ers and Boomers, and you’ll need an anecdote that they will both relate to, in a way that won’t infuriate either of them…and you’ll have this particular musical trivia fact, in your back pocket.

      You can go ahead and thank me, when that happens.
