From what I recall, a big band must have trumpets, trombones, saxophones, and a rhythm section and at least a certain number of musicians.

My husband says it had something to do with greeting rather than removing one’s hat. edited to say, he said the original reason was it was when knights met each other, if they were friendly they raised their helmet visor to each other. It later became removal of the hat. He said it is one of the first things you learn when going in the military.

Clinically, pronoia is the term to describe the opposite of paranoia. I know someone who suffers from pronoia…..thankfully just one person.

Twelve musicians. Otherwise it’s just a cacophony.😉

(I know it’s a certain number but I can’t remember what it is)

Roxsol, same. I think there is a minimum number, and maybe it’s 12 (can’t recall) but i think there can be more, and likely a maximum number. Since there are various types of horns (alto and tenor sax, cornets, piccolo trumpets, etc etc) i think those numbers can vary.

Outside playing, curiosity got the best of me so I looked it up and it isn’t 12 (no chili dog for me) But yes, I believe you are right.

And the Big Bang needs a quantom fluctuation, although how nothing can fluctuate is problematic.

If I heard correctly, a scientist named Olive laughed at Einstein at one time.

I do know Einstein did not like Olive. I can’t blame him. He called her bitter.

https://daviddeley.com/deleytours/einstein.htm

The olive eating incident occurred while Dr. and Frau Einstein were strolling through the gardens and orchards of "Quien Sabe," the Montecito estate of Mr. and Mrs. John D. Wright. Unlike most Californians, who delight in seeing their eastern friends initiated to ripe olives right off the tree, Mr. Wright usually warns visitors against eating the tempting fruit.

But who would think of warning Professor Einstein — he who knows all about the theory of relativity! One would suppose that with all that knowledge he would be on his guard against the bitter olive.

Is this the same Olive, tsug?
