Life without rock music. It is a prospect that is terrible to contemplate,

similar to the possibility of nuclear war in the 1950's. I wonder if anyone has ever written an alternate history story about this?

1. Life without any music is a horrible thought.
I say that because I enjoy jazz and classical as well. Imagine being deaf?!! If you had to choose between sight or sound which would you forfeit??!! Tough, I know!

2. that one's easy
I have a learning disability that makes me very visual-oriented. I can't listen to books on tape, for instance. So I'd pick deafness in a heartbeat over blindness.

4. I'd rather be blind than deaf.
Language where meaning resides, as well as music.
