Thanks Paolo, but I choose not to take that role. I'm really not interested in any sort of dictatorial powers, and I won't stop anyone from saying whatever they like. I leave it to you folks to figure out what will be talked about here, and I leave it to all of you to keep it in line. PERSONALLY, I would prefer that we tried to keep the topic somewhere near the subject of looping, since that's what the list is about and there isn't any other place on the net to talk about that. (that I know of, anyway.) There are plenty of other places for guitar players and keyboard players to flame each other, or whatever it was yesterday. If you want to do that, feel free, but please do it someplace more appropriate. I also would personally prefer that we show more respect for the wide variety of different approaches and styles of music represented here. We have a great opportunity to learn from each other, and I'd hate to see that spoiled becuase some poorly represented group gets tired of dealing with immature tirades everytime they try to speak up. I agree with the frustration Randy felt in posting this "opinion spam" thread. Listening to someone go on and on and on and yet on some more about why they don't like someone else's opinion, lifestyle, music, etc. is very tedious. Nobody gains from that. I would much rather hear about something you like and why you like it, so that I can learn to enjoy it too, without it coming by way of an attack on somebody else. thanks, kim ________________________________________________________ Kim Flint 408-752-9284 Mpact System Engineering kflint@chromatic.com Chromatic Research http://www.chromatic.com
