no, and why post to the list anymore if you supposedly aren't?
I was hoping people would join me in saying "hey aphex, why would you do
it?" and "yeah this does stink!" but unfortunately, the level of concern is
extremely low, which in hindsight makes perfect sense given the video-game
and television induced hypnosis that most "civilized" people are living
under anyway... I have no desire to start a flame war, and if people stop
insulting me to the list, then I won't post to it to defend myself.
