TJ, Thank you for layin' it down.

Let me add that it's very easy to come off like an ass through email. I know
that if I've ever had reservations about a [313]  list member, or if I've
ever come off like one myself (let me count the ways), they were usually
resolved within 30 seconds of meeting that person face-to-face. Disagreement
is much easier to take care of in person than it is through email. For some
reason, disagreeing seems important through email, when in reality it's just
a f*cking disagreement. We all like Detroit house/electro/techno. We all
have a hell of a lot more in common than most people on earth. Crazy
attitude is just crazy.
