I'm so glad that got sorted out - and for them to be promoting snail mail is hilarious. Can you imagine showing up at the Postmaster Conference or whatever and seeing Postal Service?

*laughs* Seems quite reasonable to me - well, not everybody is going to pull a Manitoba... :) I wonder how long it takes for a jewellery to sue Gold Chains...

What I would recommend is that everyone record an album under the name Manitoba. Have every artist who is willing do one side project under the name Manitoba... that way this asshole would be forced to sue dozens of people. Probably not feasible given (I assume) his income. -- Mr. Tangent [the binary police] www.mrtangent.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

agreed. for those who don't, there should be a re-press of it on vinyl that includes a *all* of the b-sides and remixes from "such great heights" and "the district..." --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

i second the idea of some kind of compiled version of the b-sides and remixes and maybe even some unreleased tracks. as soon as i got the two singles on cd i made a cdr comp of them, but i still want more postal service. i0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

He phrased it poorly. The vinyl version does indeed compile all the tracks. -- The best show killed by Cartoon Network/Adult Swim: Home Movies.
