Most of you are probably going "who", either because you're younger than me, not from the US, or both.  Early TV personality who grew famous partly for the "Kids Say The Darnedest Things" segment on his show House Party, where he'd gently quiz a group of kids and elicit all kinds of outrageous responses.  Anyway, this news surprised me because I hadn't realized he was still alive at all.

This is way too freaking cool. Someone or someones created a Python script that takes any given song and stretches and shrinks the beats in such a way that it comes out as if it had been played to a swing beat. http://gizmodo.com/5547876/a-python-cod ... song-swing]Examples and links are available at Gizmodo.

I want one. I don't know what for, but I want one.
