if, at the end of this process, you look at the list and find a demographic that you think is unjustly unrepresented, i'd invite you to send me records by members of that demographic that you think were overlooked. i'll certainly entertain the request, even if i don't agree with the substance underlying your suggestions.

but, that's not going to work out in every case.

and, what i'd say to some of these unrepresented groups is that if they want to be in my list then they should write music that i like better. sorry.
