I remain optimistic for the future of CM.  She's a seductive mistress
who knows how to find and attract those who will respond to her charms -
who will become her willing slaves - who haunt Borders or Barnes and Noble
or Wherehouse or prowling the internet - all to find more and more of her
music.  Once we find it, we raptly listen, savoring every note.  We're CM
junkies, and like other junkies, we're not going to give up our drug of
choice just because it's not sold openly.  We'll search, find our
'connection' and succumb to it's power.  Others who come after us will
do the same.
