Summary of September 11 Bluffton Council meeting

By Andy Chappell-Dick

Could that upstart ChatGPT use artificial intelligence to write this column?  I signed up online and asked.  Here's its answer:  "I'm sorry, but I do not have access to real-time or current events.... To obtain a summary of the September 11 Bluffton Council meeting, I recommend checking the official website of the Bluffton Council or local news sources. They should have up-to-date information on recent meetings and their outcomes."  Darn, I'll have to find my notes.

The song has been covered by numerous artists and actors including Bette Midler, the Rolling Stones, Bruce Willis, Sam & Dave, and the Beach Boys. Rolling Stones magazine ranked this song in the top 500 best of all time. Over 40 individual performers have drifted in and out of the Drifters over the years.
