all kidding a side, there appears to be an mp3 "djing" program for the mac 
by http://www.thhdesign.com/ called on air 2.0. apparently you can get 
bpms, beat match and the like on the fly.

i hope people didn't think my last email was aimed and list members because 
it wasn't at all. akira's remark "what the hell is a beat?" struck me as 
kinda funny being that i'm sure list members have heard from strangers the 
"i've got beats in my head" thing at party or at live gigs or where ever. i 
know i have.

sorry if i offended anyone, i totally didn't mean to.
