yup. the only release that i have on toy's factory is helmet's "born 
annoying" maxi-super-cd5-single thing. bought it for $20 and then they 
released it domestically a few months later. of course. and of course 
there's lots of liner notes, but i can't read any of them... luckily the 
lyrics were in english.

anyway, since helmet is NOT idm at all, no questions asked, i was just 
wondering:

does warp ever plan to release full a length album by rubber johnny? 
does mark clifford ever plan to do more with the woodenspoon handle (pun 
inadvertantly intended)? will mike ink do anything more for warp? if the 
answer to all these questions is no, then my next question is why? 

since we're still not completely sure who rj is, would it just be a case 
of him or her showing up, saying "i'll put down four tracks for you" and 
then taking off, never to be heard from again?

with clifford, was it a case that those songs just *had* to go with that 
name? or was it another case of just trying to preserve the mystery, as 
with rj?

am i asking too many questions here?

that's been on my mind for the past day or so, and i was just wondering 
if anyone knew the answers, or reasonable facsimiles thereof. 

thanks a bunch,
alan!
