Sorry ... grad school coming back to haunt me .... er, us. At least I
didn't follow it with a QED.

you have a perfect fifth, or perfect fourth in a vertical
aggregate, you have, according to Schenker, a tonal center present.
Oh, there you go, bringing in a major theorist and trying to quell
our own little "it's tonal when I say it's tonal" arguments!
Sure, ruin my Sunday, why don't you! :-)

Of all hoaxes, the one which is my most vexing bête noire on a
quotidian basis, is the cereal box top which informs simply,
"Lift Tab to Open." Then, "To Close, Insert Tab Here ." Yeah,
right! In attempting to accomplish the first direction, not only
the tab but also the slit intended to accept the aforementioned
protuberance have both been irreparably disfigured and rendered
dysfunctional. This debacle is then amplified by the misbehavior
of the recalcitrant inner bag, which can not be unsealed sans
mangling it, and hence, will not disperse its contents without
exiting the box itself. All I wanted was a bowl of cereal.
