<<Well, If the topic on this list is to be the weather rather than Basia:
All those who are suffering from heat should try Holland: it's been raining
for months now. June was the wettest june this century. In a fortnight I'll
be camping out for 9 days, attending a seminar about spirituality,
relations and sexuality. As my girfriend can't pay for the hotel we'l have
to camp. Can you imagine the joy (everything cold and wet) if it's always
pouring?

Greetings from Amsterdam

Hello Amsterdam ( we would like a real name please)

Ever hear of El Nino.  We were living it here for months wet wet wet.  I love
Amsterdam.  I kind of got chased out of the red light district though.  Those
people dont like their pictures taken.  I almost ended up in the cannel.  The
people are some of the nicest in the world.  Also I think that you should pay
for the hotel not your girlfriend.  By the way my wifes family is from that
aera, I cant remember the name of the place and I'm not wakeing her up to get
it.  But like most persons from that aera she is tall, blond, blue eyed,and a
lovely person.  When I say tall I mean it , she is 6 feet 4 inches or about 2
meters. It was noce to hear from you.  Write again soon.

<<Does Basia use a computer regularly (outside of the studio)? Is it a PC or
a Mac? And what does she drive>>

JEFF 

I assume that you ment Reba.  The source machine in the studio was (if I
remember it correctly) was a Amiga something.  And she showed up in a limo,
Lincon I do believe.  Thats all I know (remember more likely)

<<Setting up the basia-news list isn't meant to decrease your fun.
"Basia", the mailing list remains.  This new list is just a lower
volume read-only (for the most part) place for people who are
interested in her, but don't want full mailboxes.

For what its worth, I'm staying on the main list and hope to
contribute more.  But now, when someone comes to BasiaWeb asking for
info, I can point them to a resource that won't occupy too much of
their time.

I don't have a personal problem with a lot of the recent discussion,
but I also know that not every topic I'm interested in is one I want
to join a disorgaznied list on.  For example, I can read "Telecom
Digest" without having to wade through a 200 message flame war about
ISDN vs. ASDL.  There are many people out there who just want to know
if something significant happend relating to Basia without reading
fifty messages about related singers or favorite songs.>>

Ben 

You are right.  I was mostly being sarcastic.  Thats just me.  I was tired of
all the slaps on the wrists from others, (who value their time more than I
value mine) to all who dont stick to a hard core Basia format. Please
understand that I was not meaning to attack you as my wife said it looked
like.

Did you get the msg on the CDR's?

I don't think it was a complete suicide reference (in that she wants to
take a pill) but she used the phrase in "You Learn" as an analogy. For
whatever reason, she couldn't think of anything better to call the entire
album.
