You think you've got it bad, just imagine how HE feels after typing all that crap up. Of course you're right: he doesn't have to read it. >When I make printouts of the digests, his domination of this forum >is even more obvious, as they run for pages and pages. He's trying to do something about that. (To be fair, though, a large part of his old postings consist of reprints of other L-Hs' earlier comments.) >I am confident, however, that IED's new resolution to only answer >some of the mail from his detraKTors will do its bit to restore >order and civility to love-hounds. He's not confident but hopeful. OK if he answers the nice mail, too -- like yours -- once in a while, though? >IED may be confident that I >greatly enjoy his tidbits of KTNews, and the interviews that he >typed in were also fascinating. I may only remind him that >"less *is* more." About IED, you're probably right; but the maxim itself is suspect. Keith Jarrett has said in criticism of the (recent) Minimalist movement in music: "The truth, of course, is that 'Less is less'. > IED as the "Kate-obsessed" part of Andrew Marvick's persona. That's exaKTly right. Thank you, Sue! >As is evidenced by his rather immodest recitation of his academic >credentials, Mr. Marvick does have other things on his mind. He knew it would seem immodest, but the posting which prompted it (that he had never taken a course in art history) was just too provocative. A minor curse of Harvard graduates is that they cannot mention their alma mater without seeming immodest. 9 out of 10 times, he must answer, "Oh, I went to school back east," and hope people think of Boston College. >From: Greg Earle >Subject: The blinkered viewpoint from the U.K. >>>Neil Calton writes: >>>... this isn't saying much, since there were NO very good LPs made in 1986. >>I could not agree more. >I could not agree less. >-- Greg Earle Neil said he agreed with IED on this? Thanks, Neil, join a club of one. That's all -- twenty slim little lines. Enjoy the dIEDt. -- Andrew
