That's the profoundest witty answer I've read in a long time.
Thank you!

YouTube quality is generally good enough to hear the difference between good and not good. I really very much enjoyed that singing. I always listen to friends' and cousin's choirs and I added this one to my favorites' list.
I will listen on Christmas morn. ( By that time I will have figured out the log-in)

As I mentioned to zm and tsu I prefer a system not requiring a whole lot of Web Mastery and intricate manipulation and Googling of algorithm but thank you all for your interest

Eg Zed as you can see from the poll, if most of our participants-- noteworthy as word-wise folk--didn't know "doggo," in my system we can instantly and without further ado conclude it's of Type-3
