Hi Mark,
In my last two replies to your messages on the Finale List, I got
a bounced message notice from your server. I don't think you were
intentionally filtering me, as you replied to them courteously enough,
but I was wondering whether it was anything for you to be concerned
about. I usually hit "reply to all" when replying to the
list, so you get a copy directly to your mailbox as well as the
listserve copy. It was the copy directly to you that bounced.
Here is the complete message. If there is something in there that
bothers you, you can talk to your provider about it. I don't think
there is anything that is wrong with the set up on my end, though I
could easily be wrong about that.
Regards
Christopher

Well, it depends upon what KIND of democracy you are talking about.
The concept that "50% of the population plus one" carries ANY kind of

Yes, of course. I'm not talking about mob rule nor holding a referendum for
every detail. What I had in mind is the sort of indirect democracy through
elected representatives like we have in the United States. The point
remains the same. The public at large is (in America, at least) does not
believe that funding classical music serves a general public interest. To
the extent their elected representatives truly represent them, they will
tend to be opposed to it.

Well, even your idea above, where the elected officials carry out what they perceive to be the will of the people, is a little too close to mob rule for me. THere are some things (like my Alabama example in the message before, or taxation) where the government should come up with an UNpopular action, simply because it is right, not because it has popular support. Arts funding is another example, IMHO.
