What pompous, elitist attitudes! I don't recall seeing Doug say (or imply, just so's I can cover my *ss) that he thought Kate Bush's album was the best just because he thought it was. You're getting too sensitive, Greg. If someone says ' is the best album in the world' I think you'll just have to use your head and assume that the person who said it realizes that that is only his/her/it's opinion. To have to explicitly say so every time you voice your opinion is only excess verbiage. If you're gonna bitch to the net about something, please make it something explicitly stated, not something you're reading into someone else's posting; that only makes for pointless flaming which I think we all know this net has enough of! Sorry, all, I shouldn't have even responded to this. -- "Maybe I can fool everybody tonight, maybe I can make everybody believe in me."
