	Why did this ever get started? Its like saying paintings are better than
literature.... Each has its merits, and can be appreciated in its own context:

The Dead Kennedys' 'Kill the Poor' can evoke as much emotion as Bach's Toccata
and Fugue..... Now mind you 'Louie,Louie' without words wouldn't be as much 
fun... but I can't imagine lyrics to Pachelbel's Kanon a D or to Shadowfax's 
music......
