04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> I just got an email from you?
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> What is this?
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> Something involving the lobster.
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> So why did you send me this?
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> The Lobster is still in the anime channel crapflooding it.
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> Clearly unemployed.
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> Did ?
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> I'm certain this would not reflect favorably.
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> Lobster is posting about how to start a cult.
04:26 schestowitz; xxxxxxxxxxx> "The Cult of Brandon Lobster"

04:45 schestowitz; By the way, there was nothing deliberate in this
04:45 schestowitz; I simply can't think of any reason why anybody would want to
04:45 schestowitz; deliberately credit a Mozilla guy for the bad jokes of a guy at IBM.
04:45 schestowitz; Nonetheless, sorry for the inconvenience.
04:45 schestowitz; Please let me know your thoughts on the best sequence of updates or if
04:45 schestowitz; you just want to take it down

17:44 schestowitz; Oddly enough it didn't show up in my RSS feeds and having just checked the RSS feeds for validity, I'm rather baffled. But I have theories.... maybe it was past-dated?

17:44 schestowitz; I'll listen soon.
17:44 schestowitz; My wife and I are both subjected too highly aggressive harassment at the moment, so time is budgeted.

17:44 schestowitz; Yes, it is not a new issue. "Sampling", "renditioning" etc.
17:44 schestowitz; It's just the latest passing fad now. I still listen to "real" music.
