| No love for 70's guitar bands? How is it possible that Foreigner is not in the Rock Hall of Fame! Look at the list of some of the artists/groups that ARE in the Hall. Inexplicable! | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat @Elizabeth An odd/unfortunate suggestion to those with questionable scruples. I hope folks here are sufficiently civilized. We'll see. | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat @Elizabeth My positive comments are based on first hand experience. Your criticism? | |
