- >What people deem them "Alternative." Tell us WHAT that means.
-
- First of all, you shouldn't harsh on Chubby for using the word "Alternative"
- It's just a label. Our lives are full of them. What the hell do "Rap","Reggae",
- "Heavy Metal","Thrash Metal", or "New Age" mean. All I know is that they help
- me recognize and catagorize types of music. If you're having trouble with
- other words, maybe you should consult Noah Webster. In the mean time try to
- lose the negative tone you show in your articles buddy.
-
- Second, if Alternative does take over the mainstream, it'll still be
- called Alternative(it will just be a little more popular though)
- Consider this: Television was invented in 1926. It didn't hit it big until
- the late 40's early 50's. Today it's one of the material things that rule
- our lives and it's STILL called television.
