nah. what is people's biggest concern now? the downturn in the
economy. people are still concerned mainly with the fatness of
their bank accounts.

bruce springsteen got 5 stars in rolling stone magazine for his 9-
11 crapola. personally, i feel terrible about the loss of life on
9-11, but every single artist's view of it has reeked of one of
two sentiments:
1. trying to personalize something that wasnt personal to them. to
the best of my knowledge, i havent heard a song by someone who
lost a family member.
2. speaking out with the voice of "the community" which evidenced
by my disagreeing with the sentiments is not true.
