Oh yeah, Midnight Oil still rule the Earth ;-)   Had to have that name
for a joke about how fanatical they think Pworkers are.
 
 
Well if they DID, we might be a bit better off than we are with the Gang
of Three!
 
But I digress.  I've been thinking about acting and the process of
writing a play.  There are playwrights and actors.  The actors don't
have the writing talent and the playwrights need the actors to interpret
their work.  Over the course of years, the best ones learn from their
counterpoints and use what they've learned to improve their own portion
of the overall work.  Seems to me like RH and JM are the playwrights and
PG was the actor/interpreter.  Now there'll be a new interpreter.
 
And I'm with Bruce in refusing to believe stories of pissy behavior
among the band without convincing proof.  If they have strong egos,
well, has anyone bothered to notice that many people with healthy egos
tend to get along much better with other strong egos than with passive,
mousy little weaklings?  How many highly creative and intelligent people
DON'T have well-developed egos?  - Beth
