Booo!  Bad quote.  Bad quote.  How then do you reconcile Pete's statements
saying his entire career was spent writing for those acquaintances from his youth?
Documenting they're growth & maturity in parallel with his?

This was his favorite theme for press interviews during the PYSCHODERELICT
"era."

Or are you saying Pete has *lost* all integrity & *embraces* commercialism?

Besides, No Doubt better just worry about being in the *charts* five years from 
now.  Or two years from now.
