It's not like this is surprising from Joe, now is it?  It's a pity the
pair of them can't sponsor a bill to prevent crappy music being marketed
to minors (and adults), but that would be denying the majority their
right to listen to dross, now wouldn't it.

As for Al, I remember when reading the transcript of Zappa's PMRC
hearings testimony that Al Gore was the only one who'd actually heard
any Zappa.  I guess this does mark him out as a dangerous man, in that
he'd be voting on something about which he had some direct clue.

Cheers,

Paul.
