The Czechs say that you can't compare the sky (or the heavens, depending on how you want to translate it) and bagpipes.

I've never worked with Smalltalk either but I think you are right. The conversation here reminds me of the the Unix-Haters Handbook = )

    PiPedal is a guitar effects pedal that runs on 
    Raspberry Pi.
    *Download PiPedal* now (MIT license) 
    or read all about it in the *PiPedal documentation*.

edited in an attempt to fix my bad formatting (4x and I'm not doing it anymore no matter if I finally got it right or not)

The article you cite says nothing about the /alleged/ [by Hitler as a pretext for annexation] atrocities against Sudeten Germans. The expulsion of Germans from Czechoslovakia _after_ World War II was an ugly chapter, but really -- there were no 'atrocities' being committed against that population /before/ the war.

I think all three of you are right. The official Bernie campaign did not use this as a slogan until the 2020 campaign (so 2019-2020)-- however, it was in use by supporters during the 2016 campaign (source: I was in the crowd of Bernie supporters at the 2016 Democratic National Convention when the guy standing next to me started the chant & it quickly spread. It was so interesting to see how quickly it spread from just one guy.)

I am reminded of the claim put forward by the Quaker Oats Company, in the 1980s, that Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch had developed (and was distributing, in exchange for box tops or something similar) a timepiece that could keep time 'here on Earth and in outer space.'
