Hehehehe... I agree. If there were no flamewars on a newsgroup/mailing list as emotional as this one, I would be very surprised. I would prefer extremes in both directions rather than a boring conversation between emotionless PC stick figures with not a gram of dissent in their body. If you want garbage, try rec.music.alternative*. And since the last album was the subject of quite a bit of controversy ( "It's devine!" "No, it sucks!" "No, it's her best work you gelatinous pudding brain!" ) I'm sure nerves are fairly raw to begin with. You think there was one harsh word said between The Dreaming and HOL??? Look at the archives! ;-) And besides, everyone will eventually realize that ignoring the idiots of the world is much more constructive in the long run. >rjc@cogsci.ed.ac.uk _O_ > |< PS: Four angels fit on a pinhead. One if it's Kate.
