Completely agree.

I never want anyone one here to ever think that I suggest you get rid 
of your old records.  My argument was basically calling for people to 
recognize mod in the present and future and not only in the past 
tense.

The history and dedication early moderns is so important to the scene 
today.  They give us a foundation, a home, an original identity.

Please understand.. My post was to help encourage further modern 
thinking.  Mod shouldn't only be about glorifying the past.  Mod 
should also be about predicting and living for the future.

Trust me I love old records too.. Sorry if I came of that way.
