Let's try something folks: 1. Pick you favorite piece of Techno. 2. Pop it in the CD player/turntable/tape deck or whatever. 3. Put your headphones on. 4. Sit down, relax. Press "Play" and close your eyes.
When the track is done, open your eyes and hit "stop". Answer this question: At any time while you were listening to that piece of music, did you think about it's creator's race? No. Because it doesn't matter. Must we dwell on such superficial things like skin color? When you're in that sweat box, standing in front of the speakers, listening to the dj spin, moving your body to a 4/4 beat, in a circle checking out the break dancers, in the chill out room, does it matter? When you've taken one too many pills, and the medics come, and the doctors in the hospital pump your stomache, does his or her race make a difference? Remember when you were 3 or 4? In preschool, your friends are every color. You played with everyone; did it matter then? Didn't think so. Why does it matter now?

We can't see what color each other is over the netwaves. That is one of the beauties of the internet. If you ask me, race is not a problem. Sure it would be great if we were all the same color, but we're not. Music as well as the internet is a beauty in life that sees thru the colors and blends the culture. Let's concentrate on the good things: music, uninhibited conversation, fine foods, comfort, and did Imention music? Yeah techno music--my personal favorite. Peace!
