Nah. It's the ghetto boys, burning a little bush. I can't think of any topic that interests me less. I could probably go on for a few paragraphs -- as a producer and sampler, I've thought about the issues involved. But I might fall asleep on the keyboard. I will say this -- there is a buttload of trading and bootlegging going on on the Internet, but 99% of it goes on without being announced on public mailing lists. Word to the wise -- figure out how to do it without talking about it here.
