Ive consulted my think tank of imaginary friends, and a theory thats been going around that I just made up seems to point to USA Today, MSNBC,Jay Leno and all episodes of "The View" where Barbara Walters is not present (coincidence? hardly!) are the major culprits for dividing music into these preposterous categories. On a happy note the staffs at Mother Jones and Cat Fancy magazines have been working round the clock to reverse this trend and bring music back a single lump of nameless bliss just like in the days of the Musical Tower of Babylon. ernie Ernesto Ikerd, (817) 763-4795 Company Graphics, Dept 17, MZ-4202 Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company Fort Worth, Texas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
