“Sea Change”? what is that? The heading for this article shows the ignorance of the MSM and many others, when they wish to indicate a major change of some kind.

The correct expression is “C” change, which refers to changing a tune from the Middle ‘C’ as the “anchor” on a piano to a higher or lower ‘C’ key for that tune or piece of music.

Once that is done the whole tenor of the music changes and is the source for the expression. Our media is so ignorant as are many of its readers that they use “sea” change without understanding why this should indicate a huge change or be the source for the experssion.

Thanks FARS and neverdem.

[President] Johnson... signed the historic Voting Rights Act on August 6, 1965, which led one observer to declare, "There is no more civil rights movement." Five nights later, the Watts district in Los Angeles erupted in one of many major race riots to come.

Weird coincidence, huh? Gee, I'm sure that won't happen again, right after Obama is elected president... Thanks FARS and neverdem.

Drug taking, which had been largely confined to the ghetto and the cultural avant-garde, was mainstreamed and celebrated. A tiny antiwar movement mushroomed into a national mobilization campaign, involving the seizure of college campuses (Columbia University) and resulting in the shooting of student protesters (Kent State).

Another weird coincidence. ;')
