   People like that simply aren't worth anything and if they weren't so   
   Immature and Stupid, they'd realize that and DO something about it!

   But first, they Need to learn some Discipline!   
      
   And I don't feel sorry for them one bit either, rather I'm enjoying their   
   comeuppance - They Milked the great works of OTHERS to death and Music is   
   now almost totally Dead because of them...so how ironically poetic is the   
   Justice that now it's THEIR TURN TO SUFFER THE SAME FATE, WHICH THEY   
   THEMSELVES HAVE BROUGHT ABOUT THROUGH THEIR OWN LAZINESS AND IMPURE   
   MOTIVES!!!

   Why should they blame you?   
      
   > Change happens.   
      
   But ONLY Good change should be accepted - Bad change should Always be   
   REJECTED!!!
