We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Samizdata quote of the day Seid umschlungen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!
Be embraced, Millions!
This kiss to all the world!
– Friedrich Schiller’s Ode to Joy, Beethoven’s setting of which is the Anthem of Europe.
Sing all the way through this while washing your hands to help avoid the spread of coronavirus. Other songs recommended for this purpose include Stairway to Heaven and Another One Bites the Dust.

Who Are We? The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.
We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

Or the traditional one – Ten million green bottles standing on a wall …
That should do the trick, methinks. >};o)
Tarkus.
I’m thinking one could get away with a verse of “God Save The Queen” if they were washing their hand’s
with Ignaz Semmelweis’ Chlorinated Lime.
With the added benefit that it will most certainly make you aware of any micro cuts or hang nails.
Jimi Hendrixx’ “‘cuse me, while I kiss the sky” is better.
Anything by ‘The Cure’?
Tom Lehrer, “We Will All Go Together When We Go”.

He bad production
He got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard
He one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair
You can feel his disease

Seeing those lyrics remninds me of Ringo’s great talent as a drummer.
His drum part might be quite easy to replicate but I bet not many could have or would have created it.
Having “Another one bites the dust” on hand also provides the perfect cadence for administering CPR. Probably should be hummed and not sung out loud in that application, though.
Nelly the Elephant, twice through. Also works for CPR. Andante, metronome setting 80-100.
