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.
