Maybe he was referring to me?  Personally, I don't give a shit.  Both
your remarks and mine were plenty clear and even handed both in
praising Al and questioning the motives of 3OC.  Most likely just
trying to cause trouble, like the unfortunate 'smiley face' warfare
that happened a while back.

Hey, Al and the Surgeons have been a lot more responsive [and
responsible] toward their fans than BOC, and they deserve a little
shot in the arm from time to time.

Right!  The whole point of this list is to provide a forum for fans
to comment on what they consider quality music, as well as to share
opinions/knowledge about BOC, HW and tBS.  He may as well call
everyone on this list an ass-kisser!

I wouldn't lose one seconds sleep over the feeble attempts of this
would-be flame-warrior.
