ok, first of all, those who copmlain about the topic:geez louise yogurt- its just a mialing list...not the absolute be all and end all... and my thoughts: yes, i like both salinger and nirvana..the connection is tehre..but its vague...i guess its just because people can relate to both...nirvana is easy to play and raw and everything you think...there was a nirvana unplugged on just tonite, and i actually sat down and watched/listened while doing some work tonite...i quite enjoyed it...its nice to know taht you dont have to be fake in order to egt yer message across..and thats salinger too...for those of you who despise kurt, i suggest you read his suicide note....although you may not agree with his actions, the letter is quite intellectual and i find it rather interesting....well, i guess thats all for now....ciao ~Meredith
