				<description><![CDATA[All good points. 
I did have a contract, but not a breach clause. Lesson learned. I did have a contractual agreement with the artists too, and instead of being nice when they drop out, I`m just going to enforce what`s in the contract - a 30 day ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[We can borrow from the Eastern philosophies, I think. When you enter
into battle, you take for yourself the same characteristics of your
opponent.

In my personal opinion, your opponent is nuts. So aside from choosing
not to engage because you]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[I`d say this was unbelievable, excepting that I`ve seen things like it
before. I do agree that it`s sad, pathetic, and all the things she
claims to assign to you. Unfortunately, as is the case with people like
this, they don`t want to notice that they`r[...]]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[Remember too that artists are notorious for their lack of business
sense and their insecurities. :-) I know, `cause I`m a musician and
