Dave: Hey Richard - logged the net lately?

Richard: Yeah.

Dave: What's happening?

Richard: Oh. The usual. They're playing Meta Mornington Crescent now.

Dave: These guys are amazing. Any new files?

Richard: Nah. But there's been talk of a new Codex.

Dave: I can't believe anyone could sit and listen to variations of all
the tracks.

Richard: They probably don't. They're just making it up.

Dave: Nah. I think they really do this.

Richard: Let's run a test: make things tricky and see if they catch on.

Dave: Like how?

Richard: How about having several albums all called the same name?

Dave: Nah. We've done that one. We're now up to 5 Masters of the
      Universe and 4 Silver Machines.

Richard: How about listing tracks that aren't on the album?

Dave: Done that too, and got the t-shirts printed.

Richard: Not listing tracks that are there?

Dave: Been there, done that.

Richard: Putting the same track twice?

Dave: Done.

Richard: Used the lyrics for one track in another track?

Dave. Done.

Richard: Used the music for one track in another track?

Dave: Done.

Richard: There's nothing for it but to start doing these in various
         combinations.  Maybe we could get Dave Anderson in on it. He's
         pretty good at that sort of thing.

Dave: Good plan! Where's my mobile?
