In a message dated 99-10-04 18:56:36 EDT, you write: << Yeah, I think a trainspotter is someone who knows a ridiculous amount of detail about a particular thing/event, and that someone like Lance, who keeps an organized database of information, but doesn't necessarily have fetishistic levels of information. Lance is like a librarian, not a fanatical trainspotter who is into information for information's sake. >> Lance is definitely the archivist. Or maybe just a computer program. You can plug in a release, artist, track listing, anything, and get lots of info. And might I say, I'm really glad he does it. Big ups to Lance. So we are saying there's a difference between obsessive music lover and trainspotter? That seems right. B.
