I'm a Yankee so I am in a whole other country:) these new links aren't working either. That's ok, you've provided me with plenty of entertainment:)
While technically correct, a Yankee in proper usage east of the Delaware River is someone from New England. Not us in NJ or those across the river in NY, especially that horrible bunch in the Bronx that put on baseball uniforms every spring. The rules are relaxed in wartime.
I've actually never listened consciously to Metallica. I like my metal tempered with lightness-- Led Zeppelin, Iron Butterfly, you get the gist.
