I'm sorry Jeremy, but some people here are trying to do exactly that: 
bring something to your attention, namely the fact that they don't 
like the prospect of having a "strictly musical" moderated L-OT list. 
Many of your replies to some valid arguments that have been made are 
somewhat weak in my opinion, and (thus?) spark even more reactions, 
etc, etc, ad nauseam.  And then you go about saying that people who 
like arguing have some sort of psychological disease.  I don't think 
I quite like that to be honest.  And then I'm even ignoring the fact 
that you seem to be as keen on an argument as the next guy...
