I don't think "Zippies" exist, and if they do, I don't care. Only the most trend-conscious lemming-like fashion-followers read WIRED anyway. It is a magazine for yuppies who are too busy to actually be a part of any unique subculture, but who want to grab enough of the lingo to sound cool at parties. I'm just so bored with that kind of high-gloss no-substance hype. I call it 'noise'. In this case, 'high-gloss noise'. If you have an angle on WIRED magazine that suggests otherwise, let me know. I *want* it to be a good magazine, I just don't think it is. Barry "Blippie" Sanders
