Re: [xmca] FW: National Anthem and Aspergers

What is the US Code? It sounds ominous and authoritarian.

Until the end of the 1960s they used to play the national anthem at the end 
of films and concerts in Britain. It was abandoned because by then everyone 
used to dash for the exit anyhow - there is a scene to that effect in an 
episode of 'Dad's Army' (known in the US?) where Captain Mainwaring gets 
knocked over in the rush when he stands to attention and salutes. It also 
accounts for a recording of 'God Save the Queen' by the Duke Ellington 
Orchestra.
