Good grief! You sure do like to play devil's advocate,Stewart.
You know as well as I do what Billy was saying. I guess for the benefit of
our euro contingent ( and you) he should have just been vague and said that
MJ crossed all lines and left it at that.
Your Census description is informative BUT the method by which race is
recorded (as incorrectly as that may be)seems to be as I described. Go fill
out any form whether it is your income tax return or an e-survey and you
will see a box under race for Hispanic.
I still think Carolina's tone was snarky and unnecessary (reread the "I see
ignorance crosses all races" comment) which is why I responded. Prior to
this message I did not have a dog in this race.
I am done splitting hairs over this though.

np..Absolute Grey-Greenhouse (20th anniv 2cd version) Paisley underground
(they even cover Dream Syndicate's Tell Me When It's Over) style band from
Rochester,NY who had a sound not unlike Great Society meets 28th Day. This
was just released on the Paisley Pop label and includes a bonus disc of AG
live at Scorgies.
