that is such bullshit--i thought we covered that two weeks ago. one music is not "more intelligent" than another--that idea in itself is pretty unintelligent. the spice girls and rozalla are "different" than what i listen to--not better or worse. there is a lot wrong with being pretentious. when you feel you are better than others, you close yourself off from the enrichment of learning from other people and benefiting from their experiences and insight. one of my best friends amazes me with how insightful and intelligent he is. he loves rozalla. SO? music--imo--is about a transfer of emotion that is not dependent upon the latest groundbreaking sound, or ingenious programming trick. emotion does not know the boundaries that we have placed around what we classify as "intelligent." i am glad that i got back on this list after two years, because it put me back in touch with my friends at obliq--great comp, by the way--but until someone emails me to tell me that they took the ****ng "i" out of idm, i am out of here. unintelligently yours, craigj <<unsubscribe>>
