Terrific Show David. Great songs with a punch! I think I know my history, but you bring some golden historical details in the stories that that burst right through the fog

While looking for Joe Hill cartoons, i stumbled upon that quote here(, https://www.cartooningcapitalism.com/iww-cartoons) :

"If a person can put a few cold, common sense facts into a song and dress them (the facts) up in a cloak of humor to take the dryness off of them," wrote Joe Hill in a letter, "he will succeed in reaching a great number of workers who are too unintelligent or too indifferent to read a pamphlet or an editorial on economic science."

I clearly do not know what to make of it, and wouldn't dare to give advices, especially since i've never made a song(, and you've made more songs than M.Groening made Simpsons episodes), but it continues to stuck in my mind a few days later, so forget it as soon as you've read that if you want, it's just a more or less useful//useless thought.
