I just want you to know, Ms. Alyssa Marie, that minutes ago I was fuming over a
really snotty e-mail from another mailing list I'm on and your little shout out
put me back on track. So thank you. Of course you're missed too.

So I was thinking quite a bit about Beat Happening this weekend. I heard them
for the first time in a while while I was driving down to Southern Indiana, and
they're a really amazing band. It's amazing how many current musicians are
influenced by BH yet don't quite have what I see in this band. Like they have
the childlike innocence but aren't nearly as sharp, or have the wimpy music but
lack the melodies, etc. So yeah, I'm a new Beat Happening fan all over again.

Hope all are well. Glad to hear DNSS are healing, and glad to see there are
more than bots posting.

love--Jon
