You're being a lot more gentle than I'd have been, had I felt like posting the first time I saw this screed.
I'm going to make a confession here, simply because there's a story that goes along with it that's very much akin to the situation here.
Y'see, I don't drink alcohol. I quit drinking in 1992 because, quite frankly, I was drinking myself into an early grave. I found "salvation" (read "holding on with both hands and white knuckles) in AA. I bounced in, hitting both sides of the doorjam. One of the traditions is that we take our program on the road. I was doing this, in a jail somewhere (y'all don't need to know where).
This is where it gets similar.
There was this inmate who was in for his third conviction of drunk driving. He was at a meeting, and he piped up, saying that "You know, I'd probably go there if ..." and proceeded to list a few things that he thought would make the program work for him.
Our response: "We'll take it under advisement."
I doubt he got the irony implicit.
So Transatlantic, I'd like to state personally:
"We'll take it under advisement."

I don't have time right now to compose a well thought out reply. But, we at Aural Moon tend to use a looser definition of progressive rather than a tighter definition. That's not going to change.

Trans: Take 'spaz's advice to heart. We're successful here. And I'm sure we'll all be truly disappointed if you decide we're not 'prog' enough for you. No, Really!
