Re: Fripp, celebrity, and mining

[Douglas Baldwin <coyotelk@optonline.net>]

I find it somewhat surprising that Robert Fripp's dry humor and genuine
distaste for the spotlight riles up everyone's qwerty keyboard skills, 
while
mention of an artist whose response to fame was to fire a shotgun to his 
own
head is passed on. By most accounts, Kurt's respons(es) is so common as to
be considered normal, hardly worth mention, while RF's is considered some
kind of personal affront. How dare he not sign this album! How dare he 
avoid
interviews! How dare he use large words!
    Let us please reverse this trend.

    Brilliant!
