the goss i got from dancesafe is that the guy who interviewed them is a roller... and i reckon most of the other journos who put this story together are too. a very sympathetic story.
oh and it names Dancesafe's benefactor. the guy is called Bob Wallace and he was Microsoft employee number 9. maybe it's time for me to take back all the bitching i do about evil Bill's product?.... nah

that doesnt surprise me at all. Time have been publishing really good/informative/un-biased articles for 10 years now. An artical about the medicinal use of marijuana springs to mind. It had quite good effects and almost led to the passing of a bill that decriminalised medicinal use of bud! so good on em for keeping up the good work.
ps: go bill gates!! heheheheh

Well that was a great article, if only 60 minutes could have done a report on ecstasy as well constructed as that. Everyone should read this, smile and then think that there is still some hope that the media will come around to the idea. That ecstasy isn't as bad as crack, and that even though there are downsides to it, if you're having a pill with MDMA you're not taking the new "death drug". Then you'll awake from your dream and realise that the media (in the broader sense) is generally biased to these views and will take a long time for it to be accepted. But, to TIME magazine, well done on a great article.

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice
 
Yup... I dont have much to say about it other than its good to see a very reputable magazine giving the scene a decent story / coverage.

PS. And some pretty wicked pics too! (The two people kissing with the pill in the middle of their tounges)
