Love-Hounds-request@GAFFA.MIT.EDU (06/23/89)
Really-From: Todd Keenan Bowman <tb0o+@andrew.cmu.edu> Dave, Would you also be against criticizing a movie you disliked on the_ __rec.arts.movies_ bboard? How about saying you dislike a new wave group in _rec.music new-wave_? Is this bboard a discussion forum relating to Kate Bush and other similar groups or is it just a place where mindless fans can worship a musical artist? I'm very glad *YOU* love Kate Bush. I just happened to be unimpressed by her music and videos, and was wondering how other people thought about her videos. ( Truly not everyone can be as brainwashed as yourself into utter devotion ). Your asking me not to post anything critical of her is ludicrous. Are you a supporter of the censors that are trying to take away many of our basic freedoms? Todd Bowman Carnegie Mellon

There is a difference between criticizing an artist's work and calling it garbage. You opted for the latter, hardly a constructive or worthwhile thing to do. > How about saying you dislike a new wave group in rec.music new-wave? So you dislike a particular artist. Big deal. If you can't give some reasonable, intelligent explanations of *why* you don't like that artist, you've merely been wasting keystrokes. > Is this bboard a discussion forum relating to Kate Bush and other > similar groups or is it just a place where mindless fans can worship a > musical artist?

Funny, you didn't ask other people what they thought. You merely said stuff like > Excerpts from ext.in.love-hounds: 21-Jun-89 Kate Bush's "THE WHOLE > STORY" Love-Hounds-request@GAFF (989) > I found nearly all of the > videos to be plain boring.

Oh well. > Your asking me not to > post anything critical of her is ludicrous But you haven't been critical of her yet. You've merely been insulting and offensive. > .

No, but I am a supporter of the use of intelligence when making net-wide posts. > Todd Bowman > Carnegie Mellon -- Michael Portuesi * Carnegie Mellon University INTERNET: mp1u+@andrew.cmu.edu * BITNET: mp1u+@andrew UUCP: ...harvard!andrew.cmu.edu!mp1u+ MAIL: Carnegie Mellon University, P.O.
