I'm aware of the situation.
It's all unnecessary, I'm trying to be fair and even handed.
Move on.

I like to play in a major key, but base my patterns around the six (Ex. 6 4 5) and play a solo out of the Aeolian mode, or Minor scale.

As for tempo, usually around 150.

Also, about being a theory geek; Me and my guitar teacher think the following terms are hilarious: Pseudo-tuned, Hypotenuse Scale, Optimal Tuning Conditions, Communist scale. Hypotenuse scale especially. You have no idea.

What on earth is the hypotenuse scale. I googled it and all you get are maths and computing related hits... Its not a scale with three notes, where the frequency of one note equals the root of the the sum of both of the squares of the the frequencies of the other two notes. Is it?

And the communist scale? Are you sure he isn't just making these up?

They're not real. We're just such geeks about it that it's just hilarious to us. Especially the hypotenuse scale. I'm talking 5 minutes of laughter. Also, they're kind of inside jokes.

That's rich, who jumped in pretending to be the grammar police, calling me a moron because I ommitted a poxy f*ucking question mark!

I think the best thing you could do Don (in these circumstances) would be retire from this forum or any other for that matter, walk outside and throw yourself under the next fully laden truck. You'll be making the world a far, far better place for it.

The "grammar police" thing was a tiny little joke that anyone who was secure with themselves even the slightest would have been able to take.

Just like I can take your immature insult which you just added. You can sure dish it out my poor boy...

Ok, lets just agree to disagree. I'm prepared to bury the hatchet if you are. It's getting a little old now.

Plus I found myself in agreeance with your Muse reply....Hell you never know, you might even find out I'm a nice guy.

And with my Religion opinions too it would seem...

If you could take jokes better, who knows, we might even have been best of friends! rofl.
