I certainly appreciated the info about upcoming releases from Grant but I felt the Squarepusher hype "deserved" to be ridiculed as it was patently "absurd" and "over-the-top." If someone is going to post that kind of hyperobole they should expect a reaction. I didn't "ridicule" Grant's divergent tastes in music I just gave my "opinion" that Public Enemy and Prince are (in my opinion) not an appetizing combination for a musical project, much less a project that is IDM-related. I'm certainly "entitled" to give my opinion aren't I? Or is the fact that my opinion (and means of expressing it) are different than yours that makes me an "ignoramous"?

I still maintain that "genius" and "Prince" are two mutually exculsive terms, and furthermore, Prince has no real relevance to this list. Tony
