I haven't been writing for 2 days. :-) Just kidding...
On the other hand, the YtseCD list is with a high number of posts,
judging by the number of its subscribers.
BTW, if you subscribed to the YtseCD list with the following
e-mail address: <drdoom@pop.buffnet9.buffnet.net>, please send me a
personal e-mail message at <rbrito@linux.ime.usp.br> and I'll correct your
subscription. *ALL* your e-mails are returning to me. This e-mail address
isn't working.
Thank you very much, Roger...

No, you're right. And you have every right to be as upset as you are (and I'm sure that there are more than a few people out there who are just as upset as you but aren't saying anything right now). What I did, in posting a private joke poking fun at a very serious topic, was insensitive and utterly wrong, and I apologize to both you and to whoever else I have offended.

Geez, if there is no prophecy module in it, that makes me think a little before wanting to buy it. I like th eTrinity Plus model keyboards a lot. Oh well, I could wait and see what happens. I liked the Trinity for its sequencer as well. Does the Trinity also have these same effects possibilities?

I was there that night also. I was in line way back behind you around the corner and down the road.You are right, Deep Ellum Live was much too small a venue for DT. But what a show that night! DT and Fates Warning in the same night. I still think about that night every time I slip on my long-sleeve Awake shirt. I had seen two shows during the I&W tour in Dallas (D.C.L. and Agora Theater), but I had no idea who was opening for the Awake tour. I'd never heard of FW at that point, and when they hit the stage, I was blown away. I thought they sounded a LOT like Queensryche the entire set. This was a good thing. Too bad I couldn't get into their recorded stuff. APSoG is the only Fates CD that I still listen to. Of course, DT followed them with a really great show. James' voice was under the weather that night, though.
Thanks for kicking up a few memories in this cobwebbed brain.

> >Man, pull the corn-cob out. You make it sound like its my way or no >way. I was making a _suggestion_ (which if you look up the definition >has nothing to do with being narcissistic).
I understand what a suggestion is. I was merely saying that the *way* you stated it sounded like your motivation was that the FAQ wasn't what *you* wanted it to be.
> You see, Pat, FAQ stands for Frequently Asked Questions.
Thank you for that lesson. I'll be sure to make a note of it
> To my understanding (and correct me if >I'm wrong since you have such vast knowledge of our universe), these are >the questions to common questions that people are asking. If you look >over the past few hundred Jams, you will see that a lot people have >asked about equipment and music related issues.
I never said that those specifically were bad question, merely that once we go there, we start approaching "critical mass" for exactly how often a question has the be asked to be considered "frequent".
>Are there any questions >on there that deal with the clothes they wear? Or the names of their >kids? To my knowledge, it deals with their MUSIC.
Yes, there are. As *I* remember, there is info in there on the members' "vital stats" (age, marital status, and yes, the various offspring). And that kind of information is appropriate.
>So, it is perfectly >reasonable to consider adding such things to the FAQ as I suggested.
I never said it wasn't
>How many times have people asked about the instruction videos and sheet >music? Same thing again. By close examination of the FAQ, you will see >that it deals with the MUSIC of DT (and that is not what I say, check it >out yourself...prove me wrong...give me a percentage of the items that >are non-musically related in the FAQ).
The post was not intended as an attack on your ideas. Frankly, if you're that attached to those particular items, I say great. I was just trying to advise caution toward those who would take the ground you want to tread and push it further.
>Oh, but there I go again, using that "I" word. I beg your forgiveness. >Will you God...oh, I mean Pat please tell us what should be in the FAQ >instead?
I'm not the one making suggestions - you are. If you can't handle criticism of your posts (or *perceived* criticism in this case, since nothing I said was directed at your suggestions), then I suggest taking up discussion in another forum. If you were just making suggestions in a public forum (which you were), then I will feel perfectly justified in critiquing them, if I so choose.

Hey Jammers, I have a situation that some of you might have experienced and I would like to know how any of you might deal with it. I'm not going to give the name of the person involved because I would like to give him a chance to let me know if there is a problem before I get hostile or something. About two weeks before Xmas a Jammer posted that he had two Mike Bahr bootlegs for sale. So I sent him an E-mail expressing my interest in them and I put in a bid on them (although I thought that I would be out-bid without a doubt.) So he E-mailed me back about a week later and wanted to know if I was still interested in the bootlegs. I said yes and sent out a M.O. that very day. Then I E-mailed him at the end of December to see if he had received my money order. He replied on the 2nd of January that he had and my CD's would be going out the next day. So, no problem, right? I had just received Bahr's CD WDATU that I had bought off another Jammer (thanks Ryan P.) which took only about 8 days to receive from the day I sent a check to him, so I figured that I would have my other two CD's any day now. Well, I waited patiently almost a month and then on Jan. 26 I sent him an E-mail inquiring if the discs were sent out and what method (like Priority Mail) so I would know if they were insured or not. I didn't hear from him so then again on Jan. 30th and Feb. 3rd I sent him identical messages. These messages were in no way insulting or threatening, but were in genuine concern about my CD's and I have yet to hear from him. Now I don't know this individual personally or know what problems he may have run into like his computer crashed or he's been on vacation so he hasn't had time to check his mail, but everyday that passes and I don't see my CD's in the mail, I become a little more aggravated with this situation. Any advice from you Jammers would be appreciated :) I would like to resolve this inconvenience as soon as possible and without acting like a jerk. Thanks and sorry about the long post!!!

And, just to prove good will, I think this is a good suggestion, although just making it a separate section of the "original" FAQ would be better.
You see, I'm not against changing the FAQ, I'm just wary of people jumping on the changing of the guard to push through a lot of pointless, wasteful or unneeded changes.

I sent this two days ago, there is no hook, I buy you savatage and you me basu? Forget the joke and a description of "stations" although I can see no difficulty there...
hi everybody, Savatages Wake of Magellan is not out in America, but in Germany. The first two e-mails who reach me fulfilling my task will get one posted. The dollar is at about 1.89 DM so the price would be about 16 $ plus ca. 3 $ for stamps. What I want in return is a copy of Joy Bazu's self-titled CD which is advertised for 11.99 $. I need two of them, so the first two e-mails will be my pick of the day and I'll e-mail you privately. Send your offer including a good American joke and the answer to the question how one could translate the name or saying "stations" in Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey (which is a bonus question to my address and take the time is the wrong motto to day. Bye for now
Talking about magic moments, I have one in TTT after the 1st verse, when Mike hits the drum part that is also in the video, "I think it's time for a chaiange" Second the sirene-hearing thing in the car. I have that with a old Miami Sound Machine song: Bad Boy. At some point in the song I can hear somebody call my name.

Here's another parody, not nearly as offensive as the last one.
"Straining Gears" [The Mechanic's Lament]
Under the front is a good place to hide inside the bay it's nice and warm inside the wrench disappears pneumatics blast away tightening the breaks it's quitting time today...
"It's straining, it's straining on the streets of New York City It's straining, straining deep inside the engine!"
I think you wasted all the gears (you might have had too many beers) I think you fumbled in the darkness of your Big-Block Chevy Nova
"Take a look at this mess - I can't believe that you guessed - what will this cost me? I know the engine's cold I know the oil's old but can I have my car today? "
"It's straining, it's straining on the streets of New York City It's straining, straining deep inside the engine!"
I think you wasted all the gears (you might have had too many beers) I think you fumbled in the darkness of your Big-Block Chevy Nova
and now the water pump's dead and the temperature gague is in the red with these parts all around me... cause you ground the gears!!!!!
Waiting for the parts working on the clutch! feeling for the bleed Open up! Open up! SHIT there's fluid everywhere....
(Engine revving solo) (Pneumatic drill solo)
Still at work I continue to push along contemplating Holley Traneys.... "Welcome to the Junkyard we've got Flowmasters, Only Flowmasters...."
Still awake changing plugs changing vacuum lines and wires a silent man in the bay filling fluids without a care crying screaming denting quarter panels nowhere to turn he leaves the garage for home....
"It's straining! It's straining! It's straining in the city!"

Yeah, I'm trustworthy too, and if you get a message with the subject, "Oh shit! Another one?!" don't read it...your head will explode! Oops...too late, you're already dead.
No, seriously, even as you read this, your email program is spawning about 3 other directories in your hard drive in which it should load several uninstall programs, automatically executed by this nifty batch file. As soon as you exit this letter-viewing window, the program will then execute a mass delete of your hard drive, virtually wiping everything else, even them li'l happy faces, and when it's all over with, you'll have nothing left of your computer other than a plastic piece o shit hooked up to a monitor that's flashing the Majesty logo in ascii text.
So whatever you do....don't turn off this program!

Boy, this just came up on another list I'm on. Apparently some putzes in the Air Force are sending this warning out, so everyone believes it. IT'S A HOAX! JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHERS! NOTHING CAN ERASE YOUR WHOLE HARD DRIVE AND KILL YOUR FAMILY DOG WHILE RAIDING YOUR FRIDGE!
