Wait a minute, I thought that the reason KB had become such a household word
on the net was because of all the people who flamed Doug's original 
extravaganzas.  Had everyone just ignored them, this whole ridiculous
dispute would never have occured, the only thing out of the ordinary being
a slight preponderance of articles on the Exalted Lady.  This net has probably
tripled sales of *The Dreaming* (to judge from the number of reviews I have
read of it), and people like Larry are at least as much to blame for that
as Doug.  Hey people, lets talk about MUSIC--KB's and everyone else's.  That
is the name of this newsgroup after all.  If I want personality conflicts
I can go to net.flame.

				Have a nice day,
