Absolutely, but all Ken posted was that he plans to (among other projects)
kick up some dust and hopefully remind everyone that thier eyes are wide open.

Indeed from the sounds of it you would agree, it's simply not *enough* to just
write/create etc because you believe in something stong enough that you want
to make progress. I bet Sartre and Foucault realized that much as well.
You really do need to get your hands dirty if you ever really want to make a
significant contribution. If you spend all your time wanking on some
keyboard about a problem it really won't do a damned thing.
But if the goal is awareness, art's a legitimate enough forum to handle
something that simple. I guess that's my point.

Right but I don't think Ken stated it was music "about Tibet" as much as it
was a release to raise awareness about Tibet. Maybe I'm wrong in assuming
there is a difference. I just refuse to dismiss the idea without being more
informed.

No heat! Heck I'm not even red in the cheeks, this is what we're supposed
to do right! Thanks for your reply!
