Re: [microsound] Angry Raw Nerve

No need to apologize, at least not in my view.  If I remember correctly I sent a
rather OT posting to Aaron, i.e. getting OT at the end, where I mentioned that
my tone was so (suddenly) angry, because I was "so pissed off" by the current
political situation.  That was a becoming aware (at that moment) that I was
venting steam at Aaron -- who had written about something else, but had happened
to touch a raw nerve of mine -- and I felt the urge to mark my posting as
somewhat unfair towards the end because the anger expressed itself at a place
(and at a person) where it did not originally belong.

Still for me that whole discussion was not really OT.  The connection between
music and politics can't really be off topic, can it?
