The above is just the sort of comment that exacerbates hostilities; I
don't see the point at all of making these remarks.  Just because I don't
like a particular type of music or even detest it does not make it some
sub-standard garbage, except to me.  And that's what this is all about -
taking a personal view and expanding it to cover the entire realm.  That
is not reasonable.
