     PLATT: I refer you to the quotes about the rock beat that I shared in a recent
    post. (See below)

    ERIN: Many of the quotes are the artists you are making funof---so their art is degenerate but you trust their opinion when it agrees with you?

    PLATT: There are many roots of degeneracy in America. Rock is just one. The
    largest root Pirsig describes in detail in Chapter 24 of Lila -- the
    amorality of SOM..
    You'll have to explain the special connection you see between rock and
    NYC.

    ERIN: it is just hard for me to imagine a city where sex/rock-n-roll is suppressed and being dynamic. Capitaliism uses sex to sell constantly, should we turn our noses at capitlism now too? Does sexual ads bother you as much as sexual lyrics? They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so maybe focus your energy on those sexy Abercrombie ads ;-)
