We interrupt this important discussion with a howler of a YouTube for your
enjoyment and comic relief. The topic could be: How appropriate is it to
guess at sub-titling world music videos? But that would be too serious. As
always with YouTube, the wackier the better. Sean

then let me ask straight out: is it okay or not okay for me to do  
emails on this list about my weekly Spinner world music column, with a  
link for those who might have an interest in checking it out?

I'll respect the rules, whatever they are on this matter.
