Well, yeah. I was just kidding (although I have talked to a guy, a web master
for a fairly large website who was complaining that he was getting bored with
analyzing the data and stuff. I suggested we put the data to music and see

I would mainly be interested in using the database as a "scratch pad" to store
and manipulate various musical events. So, how fast is the response to queries?
So, why not making it available?
