We Are So Lucky

[CarneVaca]

We've gone slightly off track here. I would still like the original poster to explain the preposterous notion that folks who don't somehow get solace from listening to Stevie's music should be pitied.

Let's see, the current population estimate in the United States is 260 million. How many people bought TISL? Five hundred thousand, maybe a little more? All right, let's say, adding some rough numbers from The Dance and accounting for the fact that some people who bought The Dance did not do it for Stevie (myself included), that Stevie has maybe 4 million fans.

That means, according to the warped logic of the original statement, that 256 million people out there are sorry buggers because they don't "get" Stevie.

I don't buy that.
