Classics Reborn

The topic is reborn again!!!
I love the way this shit comes up every few years and how everyone's story is more truthful than the last person. But what I love more is the way most of the people arguing keep throwing the word 'invented' into the argument. Even Dio himself said he didn't invent it, yet so many people still claim it's invention was part of metal history. Occasionally when it's brought up someone uses the term "first to use it" which is a little better, but still equally as hard to definitively prove.

Well at least Geezer fixed or clarified the "invented" part. My favorite part of the complaining are the ones so hurt that Dio didn't invent it that they are attacking Geezer, saying shouldn't have said anything ... even though he was asked ... and Dio already said he hadn't invented it.
And I agree. Let's just let the whole thing go already.

Yeah blind devotion is not a pretty trait sometimes :)
I'm not sure I can lay down a time frame yet but if there is a pool running I'm going to put money on the next person to mention devil horns being Wendy Dio!
