oh, yummy...i'm counting 4 separate batches of re-played quotes there...
as magic mike said: "take it from the top..."
" So as to prevent the list from becoming a hopeless barrage of flame
mail over what is and is not "intelligent", the official stance will
be that all opinions are to be respected - you are welcome to disagree
and post your disagreements, but outright flames and name-calling are
to be avoided. However, if you declare that "Rozalla is intelligent
dance music", you should be willing and able to back it up - not just
"because it obviously is." Just remember that your mail goes into
approximately 1000 mail boxes worldwide therefore unrelated or
unneccessary posts should be kept to an absolute minimum. "
