@Devin B: my info is hopelessly out of date, but there used to be a bunch of stores on Rue Keller just west of the Bastille and La Marais. I went to a store on that street a few times back in '03 that I think eventually became Born Bad Records. It was where I first picked up one of the Ethiopiques series (volume 4, a banger). Nevertheless, research the street to see if any of the vinyl shops are still around.

@Fred, I owe you a sort of apology for stupid touristy remarks about Paris.
Don't know the city intimately and came to it through the tired old lens of art history; but we sat on a beach at Sete and had an extremely enlightening conversation with an Algerian Au Pair.
Also realize that like most established western cities, Paris itself was partly an historic theme park surrounded for many miles by fairly desperate suburbs.

@Fred, there are about 42,000 homeless people within the city of L.A.; an unforgivable tragedy.
There are around 100 languages spoken in L.A., we're proud of that.
Our older suburbs have been absorbed into the city, beyond which are exurbs.
Just wanted to say that I know Paris, like any great city, is as much a brand and a fantasy as it is an actual place.

Rev. Turnip Druid:

From a designer perspective, (my own POV), paper is far superior to digital because the designer is in absolute control of how content is absorbed. You manage eye-travel, the entry-points, the pace of reading, introduce strategic interruptions & disturbances when useful, etc.

But with digital, you give up that power to the reader's fekkin' device, which re-interprets your work in different ways. No control, no quality assurance, design is dead dead dead.

re 5;06, As a parallel I come from old school "in camera" film fx. When I fist dabbled in cgi, I would refer to it as a world untouched by god.

hello Scott and everyone!
@ Linda Lee -- thanks to my Mom, i have "The Last Whole Earth Catalogue" (cover price: a whopping $5.00!) -- i am guessing precisely because of those POSSIBILITIES . . .
my Mom was not exactly an "activist" but she cared deeply about the state of the Universe -- and even though i was only 13 in 1972, i think she understood that i did too . . . .

brilliant. glad you have it. :-)

The only time I got to see Stereolab, our car driver was late picking us up, so we only caught a few songs at their end of their set.
