Subject: Fear and Loathing in ARPAland, KaTian questions...
------- Thanks to Dave Hsu for the insight on the politics and fears that seem to pervade the ARPAnet. Unfortunately, with the knee-jerk reaction Congress has when problems crop up, maybe some of these fears are justified. In Sue's defense, I would have to speculate that if she didn't turn in Wicinski to the net.gods after the flare-up earlier this year, I can't see why she would now. I couldn't find the soc.women posting on our active newspool, but it appeared from Greg Taylor's summary that she avoided using his name. Most likely, some keeper of the public morals in soc.women looked at their active rec.music.gaffa news and found a recent Wicinski flame and a Hof-Wicinski exchange and put it together. This is mere speculation, of course... Even though the issue of censorship may be more important, I seem to have Kate on the brain and have a hard time concentrating on anything else... Has anyone noticed in the "Breathing" video, that the nuclear blast is backwards, thus seeming to imply that the subsequent scenes are pre-holocaust rather than after. This seems to also be implied by the rising sun at the end. This would not be disimilar to other videos in which the end is exactly opposite from what the music suggests (for example, the "There Goes a Tenner" video). Anyways, for what it's worth... Not wanting to stir up the import vs domestic CD question again, has anyone bought the domestic version of "The Dreaming" CD now that is out. What is the quality like? This question was asked of me the other day and I could only comment on the quality of the import version that I had. After all this discussion about "Be Kind to My Mistakes", I have to ask whether the Castaways film has been shown in the US. I don't seem to have noticed it, although with two small children, I don't get to the movie theaters much... "What made it special made it dangerous..." MarK T.
