To: Mr. Silverback
A little more than ten years, I was working with a Mr. "Know-it-all." He was singing the praises of a profound musical piece composed by "The Byrds."

"To every thing , turn , turn , turn
There is a season , turn , turn , turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven
A time to be born , a time to die
A time to plant , a time to reap
A time to kill , a time to heal
A time to laugh , a time to weep
...

I pointed out that King Solomon wrote the words over 4000 years ago and showed him Ecclesiates 3.

Mr. "Know-it-all" was quite surprised and exclaimed: "Well, I be d@mned!"

Yes, the lyrics are from the book of Ecclesiastes, but the song itself was written by Pete Seeger...
