    I was in the middle of sending didn't go out. If so, sorry).

            All this talk about ACoS has got me *really* anxious to hear it!
    And no one has yet mentioned whether that cool instrumental section that
    starts around 15:00 in the Dance of Eternity version is still in there
    and is still as riveting.... :-)

            As for Iluvatar, you can order their first, self-titled, disc
    from Of Sound Mind (410) 529-7082. Or you can get it directly from
    Kinesis (their label) in Hanover, Maryland (not sure of their phone
    number, try calling information). Their second disc is due out at
    the end of September and is supposed to be even better than their
    first. They are well worth checking out.

            Braveheart was definitely wonderful, though not for the faint of
    heart. 8^) I just saw "The Usual Suspects" this weekend and I *highly*
    recommend it. It took over the best movie of the year spot for me
    (surpassing Breveheart, though it's a completely different style, so they're
    hard to compare). For those of you who like twists and turns in the best
    style of Hitchcock, check out "The Usual Suspects". Also, do not read or
    watch anything about it beforehand since it's easy to give stuff away about
    it. Fortunately, I went in with a fresh perspective and was blown away. I
    read some of the reviews afterwards and couldn't believe how much they gave
    away... BTW, it's a pretty dark movie with some violence, but I felt it
    all fit well with the plot.
            Has anyone else seen this movie yet? It only has a limited release,
    I think -- hopefully it will be released widely.
