Chris Sez: Rare Guy never responded to me as if I were attacking him. He originally wrote that his little experiments sounded like AFX or TJ and I thought that he was somehow missing something in TJ's work to think that it was just like everyday breakbeat music. And ever since then his contributions to the group discussion have been civil, even to me. It was Brock who used the inflammatory profanities and got all belligerent on my ass. Brock's not speaking for Rare Guy. I'm sorry if I seemed insulting in my own posts - I really never intended to, and I don't see how I was. I guess theres a fine line between rhetorical irony and condescending sarcasm sometimes. -CF
