Azeem, Actually I feel a little ashamed for making this such an issue. I feel like Joni must have felt after blaming the demise of the music industry on Madonna! What is it about our Joan that evokes such strong opinions & emotions? The guy who "accidentally" sent me that nasty email was totally mortified that I posted it and has apologized several times. (Did I violate the JMDL rules with this, Les?) I don't mean my cheerleading for Joni's new music as an attack on people not so thrilled. Yet that seems to be the way it comes across to some if not many listers. >From now on I'm keeping my growing awe for Joni's evolving artistry to myself. Why do I care if anyone else likes it anyway?
