I say "knock off the personal attacks."  CEW's
response is "prove it's a good use of money."  Two
ships passing in the night.

Pretend I agree GRSF is a complete waste of money. 
Grouping the artists and calling them malicious cons
is still a silly personal attack and not appropriate
for this list.  

Just leave the name-calling out and I'll continue to
happily read the debate and weigh the arguments.  It's
nice to read these messages and learn something when
the posts are civil.
