Well, Shenandoah, I will disagree with you and tell you why. The whole tone of your post is that you just think it should be what you want it to be. You are unaccepting of it as it is. No one asked you to come here (that is merely a statement of fact, not a perjorative), rather you chose to come. I note that the substance of Susan's post was that your main contention of having to come here because of the DT was not true. You chose to ignore that. It is a fact. You have no need to come to The shoddy Mudcat to get the DT. This thread has given you several alternatives. Instead you choose to complain. Fair enough. But remember this. The thing that brought some of the most illustrious voices among us to this place was the sense of community, and the dialogue. That is what you call BS. There are plenty of sites where one can get lyrics and pure background. Please, if you don't like this version, just go there. Mudcat has, is, and always will be about the music, the issues that will spawn the folk music of the future, the characters that inhabit our various genres, and just about everything else in sight. Folks will come and folks will go, but the Mudcat will be here.

Insulating Max? Protecting him? Yep, and happy to do so. He has given us a gift, ably assisted by the likes of Jeff and Joe.
