- That's all well and cool, but don't you think that cycle is evolving?
- for it to contunue to evolve, it should be likened to the past, but
- also seen in a new (strobe-)light.....

- I actually give the generalized-stereotyped-popular-media a lot of
- credit in this historical sense

- ok, now that I'm zoning on the electro-waves of the Blue Room, I'll

- I actually give the generalized-stereotyped-popular-media a lot of

- wit a little 'o dee ole.....Personal-e I don't even trust too much
- anyone who DOESN'T liken rave to the 60's in some hyper-dimensional
- sense or another.....

- [booooooo, they played the 3minute edit on the detachable penis

-
- At any rate, Timoth-e Lear-e is into raves....There's a reason for
- that...don't deny it in your mind, don't deny it in the media, don't
- deny it to other ravers, just try and realize why he likes raves, and
- movin' on up from there.....Raves are much more than Leary and the
- 60's we all know that, but if we don't learn from the past we can't
- move forward.....
