Not all the music made in the 60s was done by geniuses. Hendrix,
Morrison and Joplin had talent, sure (not to mention Santana, who's
still playing) but a lot of the stuff is remembered by absolutely
nobody, not even the classic rock stations. The 60s are OVER, David, get
used to it.

genii?

You HAVE been a professor for too long. "Geniuses" is the accepted usage
in American English. Hardly anybody who isn't an anal retentive English
professor (which you may be) uses "genii", although since "genius" is
indeed from Latin that would be technically correct. To the average
American, a genii is a magic person in a bottle who grants you three
wishes. Oh, and it was nice that you didn't tackle the meat of my post,
but instead made an issue over Latin vs English.

I apologize for not tackling your meat.
