I think Ray was just trying to make the point that this list is not really the
place for character assassination... I'm sure Michael has good reasons to be
angry with Wayne Kramer, but as far as I'm concerned that's between the two of
them and should probably stay that way. It _is_ interesting to find out what
musical legends are like as people, but that's not the same thing as getting a
stream of abuse about them.
