Like I pointed out to another person who replied in the same manner, I DID NOT WRITE THIS. What more do you need other than the SUBJECT LINE. Did the "anonymous wrote" not make it more clear that I didn't write it. I chose to place "anonymous wrote" because I did not take the time to ask that person permission to forward his comments here. Thanks for your RUDE comments telling me to sit at home and whatnot, but all I can say in return is PAY ATTENTION next time. Thanks. gilly ps: I don't mind a one-liner, if it's smart. But even if it's smart it loses all integrity when that "intelligent" person quotes the entire fucking thread underneath. Damn some of you are irritating and need a netiquete class. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Digital Cutup Lounge" <johnvon@digitalcutuplounge.com> To: "Gilly" <galaxey@sdccu.net> Cc: <idm@hyperreal.org> Sent: Monday, May 21, 2001 6:22 PM Subject: Re: [idm] From another list I'm on... : Gilly wrote: : : > This recent autechre tour has become the joke of the nord-modular list.
