well, I agree with you all the way Win, good point about the niches. Actually 
I have no probs with stating faves. Truth be told, I think the comment on 
Tuesday's digest about level42.com's official status was a little 
insensitive; it should have been discussed with Morgan privately first. Its 
simple honour and courtesy.

Similarly I am quite ashamed of the Loz bashing that went on here a few 
months ago; now he doesnt mention Word Machine or his L42 biography stock 
much and I think that is a loss to the community, especially new joiners 
trying to seek knowledge and memorabelia. Somehow we are happy to allow 
lengthy discussions on CDR issues yet ostracize an obvious enthusiast for 
just trying to help.

My only problem with Mark King.com is that it asks you to vote for your 
favourite Trash track, - I simply cannot choose! I've tried and tried but I 
like them all equally. However, I cant help thinking that despite the 
subject, Throwing Sevens would work really well in a live set.

Forevernow.com? - Well, suffice to say I now have a 'non chargable' time code 
for surfing it!
