Legendary funkateer George Clinton has finally revealed what he

journalist Cyclone recently, he chuckled when asked what he'd really
create if he genuinely got stuck with the Germans in the
aforementioned lift.
I'm sure that quote probably ended up annoying George C. as much as
it probably annoyed everybody in the 313 for its all-too-frequent
repetition. Unfortunately, with all that has been said about techno,
it was this comment that always made the final print. and usually
without the "with only a sequncer to keep them company" proviso.
sheesh, the comment's more than ten years old. let it die. let it die.
