Wendy, just for the record, I enjoy some pieces of electronic music.
My CD collection has a number of them. I enjoy the adagio "space
music" that you can hear on NPR in the late evening sometimes. Also, I
have no problem with Rurik posting examples of his own music.

As far as "likes to argue" is concerned, well.... perhaps "likes to
respond" is a more accurate phrase. There would be no point in
responding if a person typed exactly what the previous person had typed.
If you re-read my post, what I did type was:

".....well, messages that are difficult to read don't encourage answers,
but in general...."

and then I typed several paragraphs about choice of instrument with no
further complaint. My point was that if a message is difficult to read
because of no capitalization, incomplete punctuation, etc, then people
are less likely to read it thoroughly and to respond carefully.

Cheers,
Bill
