yes, I agree here 100% .. I can only imagine what might have happened if members from the Prodigy or the Chemical Brothers would have been on the list quite a few years back ;)

Well, I don't agree here 100%. It could be in their best interests to leave, but the thing about celebrities having to be seperated from their public, I don't agree. Bochum Welt hangs out in the EfNet #aphextwin channel in IRC, and once when I was there. I was talking, and he right out introduced himself to me. I knew who he was of course, coz I heard that he hangs out there.. That's not exactly what I'd call seperation, and there doesn't seem to be some kindof secret club there. I even vaguely remember hearing about a couple Hollywood celebrities who are open with their public. Of course, this is very vague and could be erroneuos, but.. I think that celebrities don't need to hide, unless it's some kind of mindless mob who will forever pursue them trying to rip the shirts off their back, or in this case, send them countless e-mails :) I'd like to think that the people on this list wouldn't do that to Ae or any other artist.. Some dealings with RDJ in the past here proved this? Not sure since I can't possibly know how many private responces he got or anything. -- Alex
