Dear Marek:

I have probably heard it many more times than you.

If you can't explain what you mean, then what you say is worthless.

I suggest you listen instead of pontificating. May the powers that be  
protect the musicians from the so called "fans", who pawn off their  
ignorance as expertise.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
