Or as The Boss would say, "Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims and strap your hands 'cross my engines"

sorry, that's just what those words reminded me of...

Those are fascinating, eekacat- esp. the "paradoxical gears."

I've been listening to haunted dubstep recently (as compared to the "brostep" cheese from Skrillex and such), and I'm really hooked on Westernsynthetics, who has a song called The Machine that samples Mario Savio's "Bodies upon the gears" speech, which came to mind when reading the link title above.
