IcePrincessKRS Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 The key ladies... and Nihil... is the song. It's a coal miners ballad, which leads to the politics of it all... and you get Mr. Lewis.

[/quote] Missed this post. I figured the song should give it away; I was going to change my title to something like what I did, for an almost obvious give away. Still, bon travail. Anyone whose parents or grandparents were coalminers have heard stories about Mr. Lewis, for better or for worse.

I actually did know I'd seen that face before, many times (I was an American history major in college), but I never came close to getting the answer. I think of myself as being good at searching, but you have shown that you are FAR superior. I should have known that "Sixteen tons" was a coal-miner's song, but I didn't. Of course, it was late at night when I started, so my brain was tired. And, I'm really out of practice. Sure, that's the answer. The answer couldn't be that I am not as good at searching as I think I am. No never. [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif[/img] Congrats!
