Ah well, after all it's still a bit of publicity for Mike here in Malaysia. -------------- Who's your mummy, where she go? Back to top

To the admin in charge, could you at least mention that it appeared in The Star, a Malaysian daily newspaper? "Music, Myths & Legends" is just a regular column in the newspaper. Thanks! -------------- Who's your mummy, where she go? Back to top

With the time difference, some of us tend to catch a few hours of sleep between reading the fora.  I've passed it along to Olivier for the articles section. I am sure that reading the piece will generate some discussion, not to worry. This is a case where you'd (I would, anyway) really like to engage the author in a discussion about some of the things that he wrote....among other things, why he associates OTB with a quest for perfection, and how he can possibly say what he did about L + S. I for one, vehemently disagree. It is very odd that he left out any mention of TSODE, particulary in that he wrote what he did about L + S. Well....the article includes the guy's email address. -------------- "No such thing as destiny; only choices exist." From:  Moongarden's "Solaris." Back to top

The Man who is He.. Group: Members Posts: 75 Joined: Oct. 2005 Posted: Dec. 04 2005, 18:14 Five miles out a pop album...?! Either he has never heard it or he doesn't know much about music. That alone makes the article inconsequential in my view. Back to top
