Dear Greg, To echo RPI players, bandmembers, fans, and alums the world over since the dawn of Division 1 hockey : We don't like you either. If you understood the sanctity of ice hockey at my institute, the ruthlessness with which our loyalties are cherished, or the importance of the Freakout in any engineer's February, you would have expected the treatment you got Saturday night. It was rude, yes. But I won't apologize for the band. They are frenzied, Greg. They will honor your pansy (excuse me, "ivy") notions of etiquette in YOUR arena. But in the Fieldhouse, at the Freakout, all they care about is being the biggest, the loudest, and winning. If you don't like it, don't come. And to the person who responded to Greg's dissertation ("it's hockey, not opera") : maybe where you come from, baby. Kate Nowak RPI, Class of '97
