i sort of regretted replying to that mail in the way i did about 2 mins
afteri sent it!... because i wasnt aiming it at anyone in
particular...but i guess
it seemed to look that way.. i fully accept your point in calling me a
shithead
and your definition thereof. ;-) i sometimes forget im on a public
mailing
list and not discussing music with my friends while drunk etc.
