blah blah blah blah, reminds me of all those "acoustic" musicians who
complain about electronic music being lifeless, or "composers"
complaining that improvised music go nowhere, or "classical"
afficionados complaining that modern music is senseless...  i've heard
this rant millions of times, it's always the same one, only with minor
variations.  i just wish you were a bit more entertaining, or original,
in your complaint.
