GT: regardless of what America has given the world, remember who gave America to the world... (and, if you need a refresher, just look at history records from, say, 1600-1776
)
As for punk/metal music, I used to listen to that; then I moved on to "alternative" rock; and, finally, when I got tired of hearing the same song over and over and over and over (or, worse, hearing songs from 3 different bands that sounded exactly alike) I went back to classical music. Yeah, that's right. Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, and all the rest. Besides, the local classical station has a morning DJ that sounds like he's on pot. Lots of fun to listen to. And there's fewer annoying ads between songs...
