The " copy cat " purists, that is.              Jim              I've never met a CopyCat 'purist', because if they were actually going to       devote so much effort to getting themselves to sound like someone       else....even down to the individual recording, they'd soon realize they       could devote those same efforts to Originals, and more productively to boot!              Ouisie              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
