I was hoping someone had taped this debate, I missed it. It sounds pretty
crucial.
Steev's away in Europe at the moment of course but hold on to that tape, if
you could convert a tape of it to Real Audio I'm sure Steev'll host it on
Detritus, I really want to hear more of Lars' arguments... they are all
just so astonishing.
