Primus: ......No...Let me think...A...B...C...D...E...F...G......H...I...J...K...L...M. N...O...P...Q...R...S...T...U...V...W...X...Y...Z.

Methodus: Why did you go through the alphabet?

Primus: That's how I try to remember a word or name that I have forgotten. I'm trying to remember what the first letter is......I think it might start with the letter M......Is it Phrygian?

Methodus: No...I think that's something different.

Primus: Mee...I think the first sound of the word might be me......Medium. Medieval. Mixolydian.

Methodus: Maybe you're thinking of the sound M because of the words major and minor.

Primus: Are you sure it isn't Phrygian?...Maybe it begins with a P...It's not perfect...or plagal......I still think it starts with an M. Medium. Medial. Mixed. I'm thinking it's something like a name for a time period...Like medieval...but it's not that.

Methodus: Let me see if I can find it in the Piston harmony book......It's not Phrygian. For that, you are in a minor key and the last two chords are the first inversion of the subdominant major followed by the dominant major. So if you're in the key of O minor, you would end on the first inversion of T major, followed by V major.

Primus: OK. Is there anything in the index under cadence?

Methodus: ...Let's see...There's authentic, deceptive, half, imperfect, perfect, Phrygian and plagal.

Primus: No...I don't think it is any of those. Maybe we should check all the words in the index that start with M.

Methodus: ......No...It's not...

Interruptus: How about P?

Methodus: Let me see...There's pandiatonic harmony, parallel......Picardy third. I think that's it.

Primus: Yes...I think you're right.

Methodus: ...You thought it might begin with a P.

Primus: Yeah...And I was hearing an ee sound. Maybe I was thinking of the ee at the end of Picardy......Come to think of it, as I was going through the alphabet, I thought the letter D might have something to do with it......But that just made me think of Dorian. I was fairly sure that that was...

Interruptus: Are you able to view the log file that shows the hits for your website?

Primus: Yes...It's a text file. Each line of the file contains the information regarding one request that was made for some file.

Methodus: What type of information gets logged?

Primus: Well...for each request, you have: the IP (i p) address of the visitor; the time of the request; the file being requested and the method by which the file is to be transferred; a status code returned by the server...for example, 200 (two-hundred) indicates a success; a numeric ID (i d) for the file; the referrer...that is, the URL (u r l) of the page on which the visitor clicked a link to initiate the request; and the user agent...that's the type of browser or search engine robot that made the...

Interruptus: Has anyone visited the pages for your play yet?

Primus: No...I haven't published it yet...I'm still proofreading it...I'm correcting some errors......I just got done correcting the word universe.

Methodus: You misspelled universe?

Primus: Well...in some cases I want it to be Universe with an uppercase U. In other places I want it to be lowercase.

Methodus: What's the difference?

Primus: When I use an uppercase U, I mean that unique thing that is everything. I use lowercase when I mean a universe rather than the Universe.

Methodus: What do you mean by a universe?

Primus: ...It could be...for example, the part of the Universe that we know. Or more generally, it might be the portion of the Universe of which some particular being is aware...It would be the part of the Universe for which one has some evidence that it...
