Dear Pedro,
Ok. didn't read Deleaze or whatever his name is. Unfortunately I didn't have
time to read Joyce. Ok I was rather frustrated with informative nature of
your messages and my message to you sounded a little bit agressive (which
has been stipulated by the recent amount of junk off-topic threads on the
list). Ok my knowledge of English is pityful and I couldn't get any reason
from your messages. Ok I don't know that Mille Plateaux is a name of an
ouvre, and frankly speakng I do not know what "ouvre" means as well as
didn't find it in any dictionary, the only guess I have is from French and
it is masterpeace.
I do confirm this.
But why???.... Why you take it to the list??? Why didn't you reply to me
privately as I did? I just asked what you messages mean and asked to explain
to me why you think they should be on the list. I asked it in mildly
agressive way because that was not your first message of the same
undecipherable content and together with lists' tendency to talk more about
the list itself and off-topic than electronic music it makes people like me
(not reading Deleuze) desperate but I repeat that this message was for you
only, not the list. I do confirm that now I understand why your messages
where so dim and have nothing against them.
But I am against snobs and now I am more than certain that you just wanted
to pose yourself before the list.

Dear Pedro.
Can I ask you to explain what a series of totally undecipherable messages
posted to idm list could mean?
I did not get it at all. You think if you send them you'll make everybody
notice you? Maybe that it so but I am sure mostly they'll be very upset with
your actions.
Please stop off-topic that has flooded the list recently and please
contribute more intelligent content.
btw. Mille Plateaux is a great label. I liked their Electric Ladyland
series, Alec Empire, Techno Animal and many others.
with best wishes
Alien

ON-TOPIC CONTENT:
I asked this long ago and did not get any reply so I would like to try once
more. I have a burnt CD under the name of Futique "Paging Mister So and So"
which is very good slow electronica-idm music. I would like to know more
about them.
Also I would like to know more on the new David Kristian "Room Tone" if it
is possible.
Thanks in advance.
