What's really interesting about this "debate" is that in my original article
I never identified "Mass" as the piece in question, yet everyone who pounced
knew exactly which piece I was referring to.  Again, the point was not whether
or not "Mass" was a rock opera, but rather the fact that some bozo could
easily pigeonhole a piece of music into any category he/she desires.  I guess
we'd have to continue this discussion in three or four newsgroups if some
people had their way.
