- Ok! Let's call for a vote. I give one vote for Bruckner and I am quite
- sure that the 99 % isn't showing up. However, there is some experience
- that no evidence whatsoever convinces a person who has faith strong
- enough to ignore facts.
- Besides it is not true that his contemporaries and critics hated his
- music. There were some, but not all. Some of his symphonies were,
- if not popular, but approved and succesful (7th? not sure).
- I admit, it is a problem to have many versions, but there are of course
- only one originals, and most often they nowadays considered the best.

- There might be fault in both, you know.
-
- In general to hate is not to understand (and shows the determination not to).
