Okay, let's declare a moratorium on this thread, shall we? This list has suffered plenty in the past when we get off the subject of insanely great pop and onto subjects having to do with personality differences. As for the MJ jokes, I'm guilty of having told a couple here and there myself, but the bottom line is that kind of content is off the main course for this list, which is - as noted above - about great music. So if we're going to offend each other and argue, it really needs to be on the subject of the music. We can't expect to have a thriving community if we have on-list disharmony about subjects that technically are off-topic, anyway. So, on behalf of the moderators (and the others may have something to add), no more MJ jokes and no more of this, please. Many thanks.
