Hey all-

well, did you all survive the "winter weather"? nearly killed me. survived by
the skin of my teeth.

most of you noticed that I started a couple of polls last week. please take a
few minutes to check them out. votes help.

lots and lots of shows added this week. always looking for submissions.

later,
pete
