[Cory Doctorow]

John Phillip Sousa, on the dastardly "talking machine," to Congress:

"These talking machines are going to ruin the artistic development of
music in this country. When I was a boy...in front of every house in
the summer evenings, you would find young people together singing the
songs of the day or old songs. Today you hear these infernal machines
going night and day. We will not have a vocal chord left. The vocal
chord will be eliminated by a process of evolution, as was the tail of
man when he came from the ape."
