I know that's him from past posts made...but that's my point. Regardless of whether he's been posting to this list longer than i have, it still is really pompous and fucking obnoxious to name drop himself. "Oooh look at me, i'm quasi-famous, and i'm going to use that fact to convince you to respect my opinion." That's fuckin' weak. I probably wouldn't have said anything had the name not been in caps, but that definitely sent things flying head-on into arrogance land. But i suppose I shouldn't be talking back to bigup Brainwashed-writin'-idm-list-veteran you like this...where oh where has my respect face gone? Don't get me wrong. I appreciate the fact that accomplished artists like coil and intelligent industry peoples like you post to this list. I just think the best way to approach things isn't from some cloud looking down on stupid people like me... but rather on a little step ladder. That way, i can still tell whether you're smirking while you're answering my lame-ass questions. xoxoxoxo, chuckles question: where can i get lexaunculpt background, discog, news, etc if i don't have the flash plugin their site at www.peachfuzz.net/lexaunculpt/ wants and my unix lab box doesn't offer. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
