And don't buy his albums, because if you do that you might end up paying half your salary for early gems like the Joyrex J9 picture disc. It's like drugs -- if you don't try it you won't get stuck. I've managed, though not without pain and agony, to stay away from the RDJ disease. But I'm forever tied to another drug called KLF (also known as the JAMs, the Timelords, the K Foundation, and more). ********************* * Johan Jaatinen * * aniag@info.liu.se * *********************
