I just listened to your track about Rats in cages! I liked it. The singer
sounds completely off his trolley- excellent, made me laugh.

I'd say it is creative- and entertaining.
Nice off the wall solo, let me know if you guys are going to play in the
south East UK- Kent preferably.

I had a listen as well. I like it. There is a huge void left after the sad
demise of Mr Zappa who in my opinion was a real modern day genius, and for
so many reasons (which is probably what make him a genius). I have heard
loads of Zappa. Some of it interesting, some of it not particularly but most
of it brilliant. His best album in my view is Apostrophe and closely
followed by Sheik Yer Bouti and then... oh sod it, there are loads.
I would like to hear something a bit more up to date (not that I think it is
dated, just interested to hear some more stuff using the same technology as
me (more or less). A kind of mixture of Beefheart, Zappa
and...and...and....well, Gunn

I quite agree Joeri is blameless. I never said he was to blame. He was
moaning about the content of the list. Joeri is in charge. one and one makes
two. I am not complaining about the list.

What makes you think I want personal? What is this all about? So now you
want to get personal.
This actually is total bollocks. You obviously don't remember as clearly as
you claim. I made a remark which was a joke. People took it the wrong way
and a small few jumped on the bandwagon in a barriage of attack. I was very
quick to point out that whilst it was a joke, it could have been said in a
more clear way, and I recognised the only reason why everyone got angry
(well actually not everyone but a few) was due to my carelessness (I should
have known that people who don't speak perfect English would read it
differently) and I corrected it quickly. Effing weeks! I was relatively new
to the list at that stage and it takes a while to get used to it and the way
to make a point clearly. I don't know how you have got the nerve to bring
that up again. The thread may have gone on for DAYS not weeks as you so very
carefully exaggerate, but only after my point was cleared. And, yes I
apologised, should have apologised, and the rest of it for not realizing
that I should have known someone who doesn't have my command of English
would have taken it the wrong way (how the hell could I know that I ask
myself), but did I get an apology from anyone who realized afterwards they
had misunderstood? All I got left with was the feeling I'd done something
terrible which bloody aggravated me. I got called all sorts of bloody names,
and it effing rankled me, so don't drag up that crap again.

I don't doubt he was a valuable member. I just personally would rather go
out with a smile, rather than one big negative. If and when I leave the list
for whatever reason, shall I deliver a great negative speach about how the
list is declining, or shall I thank everyone for their help and leave with a
smile.

No I don't. I don't post anything to feel big. I post because I either feel
it's humorous at the time or I feel strongly about something, or it's
relative to something or very occasionally something original!. It's a
discussion for heavens sake not a computerised database. I would be rather
worried if I suddenly realized posting to the list was some sort of ego
boost!
>Because, obviously, this was not enough for him.
So it's best to sour the list with these, I've had enough postings. Why did
he not simply email Joeri privately if he wanted to better the list as you
suggest.
>Please come back, Fernando. You probably did not learn anything from me,
>but I learned a great deal from you; and I would like to keep doing so.
I am sad he's gone too. I also feel sad that he felt the need to go out with
that attitude. It's my opinion. I'm not asking you to agree with it but I
don't expect you to start dragging up the past in some sort of backlash when
nothing was directed towards you in the first place, especially as your
information is greatly exaggerated, and your example was based on a big
misunderstanding which at the end of the day was only due to multi language
interpretation. I've already explained all this, why am I bothering to do it
again?
I don't feel the need to send this to the list, so it's gone OT
And just so you know exactly what I am saying so there can be no doubt, It
was not a personal attack against the man, only the action.
I do not blame a list decline on Joeri as I don't agree it is in decline.
There are a lot of OTs, but as so many have said before, the laziness of
some peoples posts are far worse than a nice neat and tidy, easy to see,
easy to destroy OT will ever be.
I am against personal attacks as well, certainly of the sort you describe,
but I don't claim to be perfect and I try not to be hypocritical.
An argument, or disagreement can be quite healthy in many ways.
Above all, I hate racism, and was glad to see the back of you know who.
I've had my say, that's it. I'm not angry, another day, another dollar.

Actually, while it's hard for me to speak of the LUG of 3 years ago and
perhaps that's all Phil is referring to (I've been on about a year), there
are lists/newgroups with more maturity and a better standard of discussion.
Not jerk-less or without problems, but nonetheless other forums of size that
engage in more healthy communication. I do think a lot of it is the large
size of this group but I also think there are other, subcultural
(LUG-subculture, not national/ethnic/whatever), reasons that this list has a
lot of rancor and rudeness. I think it's too bad though not bad enough yet
for me to jump ship.

Clearly. But if you are going to make up your own interpretations
the words you are using and consider your own interpretations of
those words more authoritative than those in the dictionary, of your
second language to boot, well then what is there to say? Or more
accurately what is there to say that you could not arbitrarily assign

Whether *you* know it or not *Howard* did know that he was arguing a
point that's why he prefaced his statement with "Hogwash". Whose
meaning is to dismiss something that preceded as "useless, or
insincere talk" as Websters puts it. But you don't believe in

Well I guess since you don't accept the dictionary as defining the

OK. To be honest I kept listening to teachers but the lesson I
learned that had among the biggest impacts those days was to question
authority and that sometimes you're right even when everyone around
you including the authority is ridiculing you as a fool for holding a
certain conviction.

What is the purpose of these these yearly polls? Sounds like a

It is clear to the reader that you feel you have won something that
your peers have not. And you are proud of that. As you should be.
So you emphasize that you are the only one who does maintain these
ties. Therefore the clear implication is that you see your methods
of dealing with the students as somehow superior to those other
teachers who haven't achieved the popularity you claim. You
juxtaposed your accomplishments against those of your peers and
invited the reader to compare. Competition pure and simple.

Actually I recorded that in logic and the essentials of the system I
use have not changed much except that back then I was using a
Digidesign Session 8 which only gave me 8 tracks. As a lot of other
artists have observed, the more limited system I was using back then
seems to have made me more focused and productive than all the
possibilities I have now. Or maybe I am just getting lazy and that
sounds like a good excuse.
And BTW Beefheart is THE MAN. Actually I was thrilled to have guitar
god "Gary Lucas" who played in Beefheart's band when he made
"Ice
Cream For Crow" play on a cut of "hot air head". He was the
only
other guitarist my competitive nature allowed me to put on the album,
and he has such a competitive nature that there is practically an
explosion from the amp every time he plugs in. To be perfectly
honest it made it pretty difficult to play with him.

As a teacher I can tell you that if people would quit questioning authority
so damn much, and start listening to people who know more, and have been
through the same things and learned to succeed, they would be a lot more
successful. One time in a thousand that rebellious attitude is proven right,
but every young turk always feels they know more than the geezers.

Having some experience as a teacher as well (playing abrasive music
is not always the highest paying gig in town:-0) I would say I have
to agree. But I have also found I had better have my facts straight,
and/or when it turns out I don't, be willing to say "I appear to have
made a mistake" or "I don't know" as the case applies.
Otherwise the
school turns into a rebel factory.

Hi everyone,
Yahoogroups seems to have some problems with the servers this week. This
results in:
- some posts/digests appearing several times (up to 10 times) for some

- some posts to be delayed.
Sorry for the inconvenience. I hope they can fix it asap.

M'man, you've gone completely over the top. I suppose you think Duke
Ellignton and Nat "King" Cole could read or write note one of

Thoughts from the mind of Dennis Gunn, 29-06-2001:
>And they call *me* arrogant.
Ignorant would be a better word. But I'm sorry, I'm through with
this discussion. We could go on for another couple of weeks and only
irritate each other more and more. I don't want that, and I don't
have the time for that. And right now I got other things on my mind
that are more relevant than conducting a pointless exchange of
misunderstandings.
If it's all about competition: ok, you've won. I'm arrogant. I
twist dictionary definitions. I do whatever the Lord has forbidden.
That's all cool with me. Really, there are more important things in
my life than "winning" a debate. Hope you like the taste of
victory.
Enjoy it while it lasts, as it's usually such a short-lived pleasure.
cheers,

I wish more people would say this. I haven't said it outloud, but I have
said to myself and started deleting all the messages with certain headers
after a certain point.
>But I'm sorry, I'm through with

Now I've got something to say about moderation and Joeri.
IMO, it's not Joeri's job to tell people how to behave on a mailing list,
unless they are conducting themselves in a way that they start to annoy
others or deteriorate the function of the list.
Many of us have had the urge to reply, as soon as we see a subject we want
to say something about. As long as everyone's happy with the way these
replies are and you respect the other person's opinion, you've got things
smoothly running.
That is as long as not everyone on the list starts replying to the same
subject at the same time.
The LUG is like what? 5000+ readers? If we all started replying to each and
every mail, I bet the mailing list would become practically non-functional.
So, before I mail something, I always take the time to read the subjects
that interest me. It's impossible to read all 150+ mails everyday; I have
another life besides this mailing list, :-).
This way I moderate myself. Gives Joeri a break, :-).
Once a while a joke is ok, it's fun reading these. But if some joke becomes
a week long thread, you should try to restrict yourself from sending a mail
in reply of it. May be a cool crack at the joke, but then send it to the
person himself, off-list.
How about we start moderating ourselves?
If you want to reply to me personal, that's ok. But I can't promise to reply
soon. My work eats so much of my time, :-).
Peace,
Yoonchi.
Are people really named "Tit" and "Ass"? I see a lot of
names of all
nationalities as a teacher but never these two.
