--guess again.  spin is correctly named, since it's an acutal
"spin-off" of rolling stone magazine.  an age-old trick to reel
in the bucks of the unsuspecting--try to appeal to those who abhor
the original rag.  as for me, i'll stay away from rotting stone and
any or all of its offspring, and use my funds to support the bands i
think are worthwhile by buying their records and attending their shows.

				so there.
