In re Mr. Rosen's reply to my comments about his survey, whence he objected to my unhappiness about having to 'n' over many rock articles in net.music by saying that every newsgroup has some articles one is not interested in, can one reasonably expect a newsgroup to just contain articles of one's interest. Of course not, but it is reasonable to be interested in *MOST* (I'll leave the definition of MOST to the individual - suffice it to say that net.music doesn't fit my definition of it). of the articles. When one starts getting large numbers of Top 40 Rock articles one tends to thank the person who invented the Shift-U command. <end of flame> On behalf of those of us who didn't answer the "survey" questions precisely enough for its author - let me note that one is not required to answer leading questions in a court of law, when the judge upholds the objection of one of the attorneys. <end of second flame> Now, let's get on with the real purpose of net.music.classical, which is to exchange views about classical music, a purpose which it is doing very nicely, I'm glad to say. Let's keep up the good work. Regards, Bill Mitchell Bell Communications Research, Inc. Whippany, NJ (whuxj!wjm)
