Haha well not to further "hijack" this thread, but I have one question that's been on my mind; As far as I'm concerned the previous posts are put behind us, so I pose this question in the most peaceful manner possible. What made you list Zwan rather than the Smashing Pumpkins as your secondary influences?

Now that is a good question. Here's another: How on Earth could the Pet Shop Boys be a good influence?

The alternative is too horrible to contemplate.

Reading comprehension seems to be a problem for many of you (there has been more going on behind the scenes than on the notice board). My post should not be that difficult to understand. Among other things, terms such as "drumming" and "India" are not code for anything else. I do not want to visit you in Seoul, Japan, Thailand, or any other place not mentioned in my post. And the insinuations that you might change your life plans as a result of a visit from me are creepy. I do not wish to "put it", my only pleasure is diddling as such. I am confident the, uh, astute readers on this board will catch not only the drumming-related pun in the previous sentence, but also be familiar with the quote I borrowed from and its source.

And yes, I am aware of the seeming futility of decrying poor reading comprehension through the written word -- if you can understand this sentence, it might not be relevant for you and if you can't understand it, it seems likely to be relevant. Oh, bother!
