On Wed, 29 Dec 1999 20:20:58 -0800, kfj <karenfj@spotmail.commachameleon> brought a guitar into rec.music.rem and sang this song:
: Okay, it's the end of the year. What have you learned on rmr?
: What have you gained from rmr?
: Have you bought a cd or seen a concert because of a reccomendation on rmr?

I bought Neil Finn's Try Whistling This because of the NG... and I was very
glad I did.
I have a little slip of paper with bands' names on it that I write down from
postings on various NGs, and a bunch on that list come from rmr..
I *almost* went to see Freedy Johnston and Billy Bragg.. but, regretfully, didn't.
What have I gained besides a new way to spend time? :) Well, I learned a lot more about R.E.M. (obviously) and got exposed to bunches of intriguing and cool
individuals.. what more could one ask?
Oh, I also learned not to ask about Michael Stipe's sexuality, lest I field
a barrage of angrily worded replies ;)
