Do you ever suspect small talk is what happens when people are only comfortable discussing lowest common denominator subjects? You reminded me of this classic.

Nice to see more from Great Lost on your FR10. I'm also very fond of that Brian Eno song.

That was a funny scene. "Waiter, this conversation isn't very good." Of course better to be in that restaurant than the one with Mr. Creosote.

Yeah, it's a fun, punky song.
