In a comment of mine on this website's homepage survey about the death of Tim Curry, I'd mentioned that I enjoyed his song, "I Do The Rock," from what I believe I said is his first album as a recording artist. Actually, that song is on his second album. Since there seems to have been no videos made for songs from Curry's first album, accompanying this question is the clip for the song I mentioned previously. Have you ever been mistaken, in this forum, or elsewhere, about the artistry of someone whose work you like?
Yes

In a more recent common of mine on an internal Tw survey, the subject of which now eludes me, I alluded to the US domestic terrorist-turned-college professor, Bill Ayers, at whose home B.H. Obama was introduced as a candidate for the Illinois state senate. In mentioning the radical collegiate group of which Ayers was a leader, the Weather Underground, I'd also referenced the ideologically similar Students for a Democratic Society; but I believe I accidentally abbreviated it SDA, not SDS. Perhaps I was confusing them with the Society for Creative Anachronism! Have you ever confused initials for wildly different organizations?

I can't recall a specific instance of doing so in any Tw poll comments, but early in the '20's, during the peak of COVID-19 mania, I may have mis-abbreviated the much-maligned, but nonetheless demonstrably effective against the aforementioned coronavirus, medicine hydroxychloroquine as HQC instead of HCQ. Whether it's with that drug or another, do you know anyone who has recovered from an illness or regained health from a chronic condition by using means not approved--or, perhaps, actively opposed--by the medical (and/or government and media) establishment?
Yes (and I may be one such person)

One of the links I included in reply to a survey about Mother Theresa goes to a Reddit page offering defense from a Roman Catholic perspective against allegations made against the late nun by atheist commentators. I'm neither papist nor atheist, but it wasn't my intention to defend her against legitimate concerns , no matter who would raise them. Have you ever hastily posted a link to commentary running counter into a point you'd intended to make?
Yes (and I may cite an instance of doing so)
