If you *MEANT IT* then why didn't you *SAY* it!!!!!! Are we required to _guess_
which words you left out in order to properly understand you???? P*ss off
with your lame excuses and blaming others for YOUR poor communication skills.

Opinions are like arseholes....

Ok. But, back off on the SCOTTISH/UK authority on US-based music forms spouting
you have done. I think we in the US know a little more about Detroit, Chicago,
and NY musical history and origins than you SCOTTISH/UK'ers. Just to be fair,
I would have the poise and intelligence to refrain from claiming any authority
on what goes on in your home country, whichever it may be. You failed that
test.

OK. Here's a clue, bright boy. Look at your .sig. This is the last thing I
look at when I decide to reply or follow up.

Now, looking at that, one can only assume you are BRITISH!
Gee, the "uk" at the end, "British Telecom", sounds "british" to me...
Oh, or are we supposed to wade through the pages of path information
to guess that the machines your posting passed through happen to be
geographically named and *our* knowledge of geography is up enough to 
know that the podunk town your postings come from is in SCOTLAND and not
ENGLAND? If you want to be known as SCOTTISH - put it in your sig! So
far, it leads one to think otherwise.

Then why did you go off claiming to be an authority on the subject? Lay off
the childish self-aggrandizing play for attention, OK? There is a phrase
you can use before you write OPINIONs. It's called _IMHO_. Use it. See prior
point on communication skills. Hone them. Then you won't p*ss people off.
(For new-netters, IMHO - In My _Humble_ Opinion)

>	As for Tribal music, I caught the sound coming out of deep house ....
Then say so - state _you_ cought the sound coming out of deep house, *not*
"The tribal sound comes from deep house...". Quite a different emphasis and
tone. It was your tone that bothered me.

>so stop trying to lay your "I know more about dance music" shit on me...
>... (lots more self-aggrandizing play for attention crap deleted)
Sounds like that is _exactly_ what you are doing - laying _your_ "I know more
about ..." shit on us.

It's ok. We don't understand it either. We are still trying to fix it.
Hopefully the Dems will try something that works 'cuz it is real broke now.
Maybe some interesting new forms will come out of the US focussing on itself
and its role in "the new world order".

Me neither. F*ckin' A. +<:O (the pope when he goes down on ya:}

Happy New Year!
I resolve not to bicker anymore with petty scotsmen. Rave on. Flame off.

See 'ya in the next one!
