Aran wrote me this:

And this dude's writing from Hyperreal?!?! With that attitude -- one wonders what kind of a trader he would be. I owe an apology -- I guess I made the stupid mistake of thinking that the whole purpose of something like Hyperreal-dot-**ORG**, for instance, had a little something to do with community responsibilities, assisting your fellow trainspotters & so on. Hmph. So -- if it's ALL supposed to be about MUSIC, as Aran so prosaically suggested, then I actually *support* him: let's take down the IDM list, which is all just *talk.* At least, that is, until we can perhaps *sing* our e-mails, or even better, just communicate with one another in simple tones, as in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind."
