Scary to read that censorship is already seeping in, along with the rest of 
the poisons.  As for the Zorn album, I find both the cover artwork and the 
music within quite lovely and reasonably optimistic - the coincidence for 
me was merely that I had put an album with such a title in my CD wallet for 
work on this particular week - so hopefully the door busters will spend 
their time instead enjoying it on headphones.  If only those eager to push 
buttons would simply attend to their CD players...
