I remember a cartoon directed

I remember a cartoon directed at those of us who are interested in historically informed performance of early music. It portrayed a dentist nonchalantly explaining to his terrified patient that "today's treatment will be performed with period instruments." Looking at the stuff that led folks to this blog from search engines, I found "painkillers" + "1940's" Hmmmm.

Look, I like period harpsichords, but give me "painkillers" + "2003" any day! Although, really I can't imagine that the synthetics I used last week were that much better than the opiates of the 1940's.
