How can this list be taken seriously when the subject of Mira Calix's looks gets more traffic than a serious question about her music? Check out what this guy Alex_tea wrote:

Exactly! I've seen Ross Balmer make some reasonable comments (below) about her music and asked a perfectly decent question. Any replies? Well, none on the list, anyway. Did Ross get any response via private email? Possibly, but I doubt it. Ross Balmer wrote:

And then I posted my own question about Mira Calix (below), and did I get a response? No, not a sausage. In fact, since I posted it, there have been 8 messages about Mira Calix's looks and the 'human rights' issues associated with talking about them, and not a single one about the music that she produces. I wrote:

If this is as intelligent as the 'intelligent music' community gets, then I've had enough. Many thanks to the few people on this list who have been helpful and interesting. As for the rest of you... Don't feel any need to reply to this (as if you would) because I won't be around to read it. Good bye.

Okay, that's probably just wrong. If you go about tallying up all of the posts related to her music, and then those related to her looks, I'd wager that the music gets a lot more discussion. So thanks. Anyway, her music's alright.. nothing too interesting, so maybe that's why we don't talk about it. / wells // www.submute.net
