Ron's thoughts...

While I agree that R.M.G. should be open to more than "just" Kate stuff, I
don't think that any newgroup is the place to post a gazillion line
discography.  It believe it would be more appropriate to post "I've got this
great Tori discography, let me know if you want a copy (handle it like you
would a FAQ)."
