    My god, I can't begin to tell you how dangerous your "pedophilia" logic is.
    Scares the living shit out of me, that logic. What a pathetically weak and
    destructive line of reasoning! Maybe they do love kids. Maybe they HAVE
    kids. Maybe they baby-sit their brother's kids. Maybe they think the
    innocence of childhood is beautiful...I could come up with a million
    theories. But Pedophilia? For christssake man, get a grip and loose the
    "witch-hunt" mentality.

    I once traveled through Nepal and India, doing some photography when
    inspired. I went through a time where I shot a lot of photos of the city
    children. They were so beautiful! I'd love to share them with you. But if
    you saw them, and posted "liquidmice is a pedophile" to a thousand people on
    an e-mail list...christ, I'd hunt you down and beat the living shit out of
    you man. That's a serious fuckin accusation in this day and age. I hope
    BOC don't frequent the archives or anything.

    Sorry for the profanity and anger in this post. But myself and a whole lot
    of other folks are on this list, and pedophilia is sick and serious...I just
    got awfully freaked out by your logic. I'm sure you didn't mean it as a
    full fledged criminal allegation against the BOC boys, but you still rattled
    my cage! Now, how about a review of the CD? But hurry up, I've got a book
    burning to attend this evening...
