I am VERY pleased to see "disaster fund collection" in the proposal, but I think neglecting "downtown" (12") and "next" are unfortunate large omissions why not dump "mind the gap"? much better suited to a full "1987", in my opinion another criticism - while I enjoy "fuck the millennium", that's 2K, not KLF - if that's to be included, why not an edit and why not include some disco2000 (one love nation 12") On Jan 17, 2007, at 10:23 PM, John Lunney <johnlunney(a)o2.ie> wrote: > > > 1.

Has anybody noticed today you can't search for anything or that u get no hits from it? RMStringer ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Let teachers and priests and philosophers brood over questions of reality and illusion. I know this: if life is an illusion, then I am no less an illusion, and being thus, the illusion is real to me. I live, I burn with life, I love, I slay, and I am content.

To answer the Question about Vinyl Addiction; a few years back, i phoned the number i had. The phone was answered by a guy who's name wasn't "Pete" (already a famous person in this saga). The guy told me Pete quitted since he had some healthproblems (?). I really need to find those letters but it won't be untill next saturday/sunday. I hope one can hold on untill then. If I'm correct, i've mentioned this way back. Dunno when but it should be in the archives of this list.

> i really liked the idea that this was going to be distributed in places where people who might > never normally listen to the klf might pick it up by accident and experience it through a completely > different context I don't think what I'm about to suggest is practical but offer it up in case someone gets an idea: There's a website out there (can't recall or find it, sorry) that encourages the 'liberation' of books. You are encouraged to trade books with others and all it costs you is the postage to mail your book. Also, and here's where my thinking lies (or lay) is that you are also encouraged to leave your books out in the wild (on a bench at the airport, in a coffee house, on the bus, etc) where someone else might pick it up. There is a place where you can register your book and print off a label to past inside explaining this with the site URL and book ID number so the book could be tracked around the world. Now I don't propose something as grand as that, but I like the idea of leaving copies of the CD scattered all over the place (not just the music racks as originally suggested). The label can suggested the finder burn a copy for themselves and leave it somewhere for someone else to find. The only real problem I see with that is with ipods, etc being the rage right now it's unlikely someone on the Tube will have a portable CD player to pop it in and listen to. They'd have to bring it home, or at least back to their car. And, as such, the whole concept falls apart. So there. -paul

> Anyway, why do you care? Many of the tracks were created by people on this list. So it's reasonable to be annoyed that something created to be freely distributed (moreso if you were one of the creators) is being sold, esp without stating as such. However, to be fair, Jimmy did the exact same thing. He got a box of disaster preparedness videotapes from the British gov't and sold them thru Blacksmoke for 10ukp each. -paul
