I think some level of Zen understanding may be achieved on our part by remembering that Most People Are Like This Guy, and, after a possibly bad day, they're capable of the most useless levels of bile, directed at some unconsciously chosen target. When I was 14 I told my mother that "most people have cottage cheese between their ears," and this remains an unaltered statement to this day. Anyone on this list who says they've never encountered this kind of thing is either in sheer denial, or has never played for an uncontrolled audience. So check your teflon jackets, kids - the rebuttals to Mark's flame have taken up more bandwidth than the original flame itself - to say nothing of personal bandwidth used in even contemplating such uninformed and uncontrolled foolishness. Let's all go play some of our own music, and forget all of this. Stephen Goodman * The Loop of the Week! EarthLight Productions * http://www.earthlight.net/Studios
