This is the most ridiculous excuse-making handwaving I've seen in quite some time. If FSOL think that the fans who'd want to hear the two extra tracks on the reissue are nothing more than "anal-retentive trainspotters", that gives a really nice clue as to how good the music is and how much respect they have for the people who listen to it. Where exactly is the dividing line between being happy that people like your music and calling them names for wanting to hear all of it without having to buy most of it twice? I'm *really* curious.
