Kenneth Sidney "Kenny" Drew
August 28, 1928 – August 4, 1993
' His touch was described in The Biographical Encyclopedia of Jazz as "precise", and his playing as being a combination of bebop-influenced melodic improvisation and block chords, including "refreshingly subtle harmonizations". '

...i just read on wikipedia that "Tina" was morphed from "tiny", a nick name from his childhood.
...more revelation!
i'd made the decision, pre-internet, that Tina must be a spanish name (like Tito)

then when it's sunny on tuesday they say wednesday; then wednesday they change it to saturday. saturday they change it to tuesday...
i noticed it then, and figured it might be part of the demoralizing effort that most people are oblivious to; but it could easily be...probably is- the result that meteorologists and nasa warned us the 5g network would cause. the instruments simply don't function correctly, even by the previous standards.
... that's the forecast problem. global warming is the weather problem.
