Sorry for the digression - those of you in the States might be interested to know that 20/20 on ABC ran a "news story" on raves last week. I didn't catch the show, but was emailed a rough transcript. It's pretty extreme and absurd, along the lines of similar parental scare publicity in the past (drugs, sex, and high-tech rock and roll). I won't clog up the list with a rundown of the whole show, but if you're interested mail me privately and I'll send you a transcript. If you did happen to catch the show and have any reactions/comments, you can get in touch with ABC by going to the following url and following the directions to send an email: www.abcnews.com/onair/email.html - don't let this kind of "objective" reporting go unchecked...Brock (stepping down off his soapbox)
