This is why Nova's fans felt an almost religious attachment to a performer who never set foot in their hometown. Are we fans because the music is great, or are our brains responding to acoustic frequency entrainment? -- Sven Choi | schoi@u-tokyo.ac.jp PGP Key fingerprint: 986C 1B13 EC3D B8B5 "Keep the channels open."
