[TriLUG] Music Files (and a small rant)

[Joel Ebel]

Just to clarify... I find no absurdity in archiving a collection of 
music, or National Geographics for that matter.  My mention of absurdity 
was in reference to my idea of mirroring different genres of music on 
different friends computers based on their preferences of music.  I 
thought it was an absurd, but humorous suggestion.
