Ian, Thanks for posting the link to the Dick Gaughan article. It is perhaps even more relevant than ever in today's online world. Also worth a visit is www.internetisshit.org, another discussion of style vs content, the medium not being the message and so on. For a longer read, Andrew Keene's "The Cult of the Amateur" is also interesting, and available from Amazon.
All the best, Andrew Gilhooley To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
