As far as I'm concerned, everything in life is "related to music." Or, "Music is life, the rest is details." However, in regards to what started this "debate," Waves plugs are made in Israel, at one point on another list, a boycott was suggested, not in support of Palestinians, but in protest of the Israeli government's recent actions against other human beings. I thought about it, and decided to postpone my purchase of the Waves Bundle. We just had the American Congress give our "President" unprecedented power to make a preemptive strike on another sovereign nation, while our economy is in shambles, partly because people are more concerned with an impending "war" than creating work, or creating anything, for that matter. Then, we find out that another country, North Korea, has had nukes in the oven for some time and our "President" knew that a full 2 weeks before Congress voted to give him his requested, unprecedented "power." A secret his administration kept until after the vote, events certainly worthy of at least a 3 chord Folk Song, recorded in Logic Audio Platinum. So, how does all this relate to Logic Audio? I'll tell you; in my case, I won't be buying a Logic upgrade until things settle down. I won't be buying Waves until things settle down. I won't be buying a new Mac until things settle down. I won't always have an opinion to offer, but I'll have one, and it will be influenced by what other people think about the same things that affect me. But, find all this on yet another list? Not worth the effort. Jeremy notes we have 608 LUGgers on this list and I'll note that only 27 of them voted in the last poll. I'd say that indicates an overwhelming majority who don't give a fat rat's ass WHAT is discussed on this list, by a margin of 596 to 12. The ratio of LUG on topic subscribers to LUG-OT subscribers suggests that this is the only list needed to preserve the interest of those who have "related" interests beyond the actual care and feeding of Logic Audio, itself. At 608 to 9265, I'm shown that less than 1/10th of the Logic Users know about this list or care about it and how it relates to their craft. I could construe that imbalance as due to people who don't vote or don't care about anything else, but that would be as silly as assuming 12 people should "legitimately" decide what 596 others discuss. The rest of this discussion has been about personal idiosyncrasies, and is the most irrelevant discussion of all. I care more about what someone thinks than how they express it or their opinion of how someone else expressed theirs, idiot, asshole, or "nice guy." So, skip the bullshit, forget the insults, they aren't REALLY personal because no one REALLY knows anyone else here, and get on with the "debates," whatever the "topic." It's all food for thought and certainly something to write about, both words and music. :) Regards, ...z If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments... -- Zeek Duff's CDs and mp3 downloads -> http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/305/zeek_duff.html -> Fingerstyle Jazz Guitar From Beautiful Colorado [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
