In article <9008271757.AA07992@quincy.cs.umass.edu> you write: |> |> Ms. O'Connor is not American (she's Irish) -- why should she want a foriegn |> country's national anthem played before her concert?

Of course I am biased since I am American, but I think that if you are in a foreign country, it is always best to observe and respect local custom. I enjoy Sinead's music and recently saw her concert (which was very good) and I always thought she was a humble person, so I must admit I was a little surprised at this apparent ego trip. Sinead is quickly rising through the ranks, but I think she should take a step back and reassess her self-importance. -- Greg Larkin (ASIC Engineer) Viewlogic Systems, Inc.
