That's great, really!  She's an Independent artist with no major
label contracts or contacts.

The song is about all the people who have helped her keep heart over
the years, and really, the *biggest* part of that is the mailing list
Ecto, and the support she's gotten on the net, all over the net.  I
can say for *sure* that without us, she wouldn't have re-released
her 1st 4 albums on CD (they were only available on CD until 1992)
and we've been responsible for a lot more too.  She's very, *very*
greatful.  If you happen to buy the CD (the new one is called 
_Building The Colossus_), check out the "Thank Yous".

Thanks for posting!  Let me know if you'd ever like a FAQ.
