- Eric here. Thanks Lazlo (and BTW I finally found the Bomp mag--be patient!) :)
- I am a skinny pasty-faced guy who likes to dance but I fully smypathize
- with Lazlo.
- I guess the real reason I don't go to raves is that I feel I am past
- the phase in my life where I like to go out to socialize with large groups.
- What's more is I have never gone for the "unity and brotherhood" thing
- and drugs stronger than caffeine (PC for alt.rave to say that :)!) don't
- interest me.
-
- So why read alt.rave? Because I like TECHNO! TECHNO TECHNO TECHNO! Love the
- stuff! Nuff said!
-
- There was a time when I felt inclined to create a seperate newsgroup for
- techno, but a couple guys named Pete convinced me to give alt.rave a chance.
- So now I have a place to get Techno info and a few laughs as well. :)

- >Is someone going to take away my alt.rave card now?

- Naw, that would be elitist!
- We can't have elitism! All elitists SCRAM! Oops! :)
