I've rediscovered the first movement of the Ninth after listening to Leif Inge's 9 Beet stretch, at least the first thirty minutes of the 20+ hours. A wonderful piece that I hope to investigate more very soon.

Also contemplating Einstein's quote "God does not play dice with the universe" - didn't Niels Bohr win this argument? That's always been my understanding. So why would you quote the person who is wrong? I need to research this more.
