<Frenchguy> what about the Gong, Tangerine Dream, NIN remixes ?
<Andy_Orb> haven't got a clue...
<DodgyG> Trying tro keep track of all the questions
<gav> whaddya mean - holding 200 conversations simultaneous should be
    childs play !
*** Signoff: halfawhol (Leaving)
<Andy_Orb> I have enough trouble holding one conversation at a time
<Andy_Orb> Frenchguy: what about them?
*** Signoff: _nifer (Connection reset by peer)
<Davey> are you looking for any new staff?
<Burt> isn't it a shame that big life's financial dealings affected the
    direction the orb eventually found themseves in
<DodgyG> Is this going out to the megastores?
*** Rico (~GC10000E@xtra.london.virgin.net) has joined #nmechat
<Andy_Orb> Alex was going to join in

    problems yo find the Zombie remix
<Simon> Andy which is your favourite album?
