*Military funerals accompanied by the lone “Taps”-playing bugler have been a token of American patriotic ceremonies, so the fact that most of the horn blowing nowadays is highly fake might make some traditionalists a tad peeved. Organizers decided the boom-box “Taps” recording was just too pathetic, but since there are so few real buglers left, many military funerals are getting the [”Ceremonial Bugle”](http://www.ceremonialbugle.com/works.htm?ref=jasontucker.blog) — a small digital device that fits in the horn, projecting a digital ”Taps”. This really is the true American solution, if you can’t keep the original craft alive, get a cheesy replication.*
