Reminds me of the old Mad magazine skit "You know >you're sad when....you spend hours analyzing the smudge on the new album >cover of your favorite band, only to find it was a bit of peanut butter >from the sandwich you were eating." sad, maybe. but at least we're deriving enjoyment and pleasure out of something beautiful for what it is, rather than ridiculing it for what it's not. sadder, i would think, that you can't do the same... btw, i'd love to hear your version of iz-us. if you can record it (shouldn't take more than a couple minutes, eh?) i'll put it up on a realaudio server and we can ask everyone else what they think as well. while i think you are seriously trivializing the creativity required of this with your recipe, i also think you are underestimating the technical skills required. either way, put or shut up, as the saying goes... ... art
