Re: Empire (hacktivismo)

Hi Ralph,

I totaly agree with your comment about the perverted puritanism.

Yes, a hillarious silly book indeed. But I think Zappa's absurdities has
survived the 1980's mainstream incorporation of subversive energies of
conterculture. We are all suffering from the fact that he wasn't elected
president of USA...

best wishes, flp.
