This from Thin Jamie, sums it up for me well - 'I delete a lot of Gathering
emails after only a very brief skim. Many of PW's long arguments fall into
that category. But so do discussions about Goth , US hardcore, cats,
communism, etc. On the other hand, he's probably the person (here) who has
made me laugh out of loud most often in the past few years. I think the
playground is big enough to include him.'



Oh yeah, i meant to mention something about that as well. This is the
perfect summation of not just Peter West but the Gathering in general and
probably any mailing list for that matter. I like the American Hardcore
discussions though.
