...went to school for five years in Bratislava, two years to the elementary school, and then for three years to the "Real-Schule." During that period, I did not earn a single A--except in singing and in German. Of course I had an alibi. These were all Slovak schools, and I started to learn this language only at 10. Unfortunately, it is hard to invoke this excuse for mathematics, and I certainly did not distinguish myself in this subject, either...My grades were C's and an occasional...
...parachute. The officer explained that parachutes would be of little use in the T-3 because the plane lacked ejection seats.

Oh, and electricity seems to have hung on, too. Wind and water power feed walled settlements where the remnants of humanity live like 19th century pioneers...
From a technical stance, one could argue the merits of the show. Moby really made very little musical contribution to the music; except for the punk intervals, much of the music came from pre-recorded DATs, which the musicians played over.
