Nice to hear your virtual voice again Matt. Sorry to learn of your ordering woes, but being somewhat fluent in the 'tongue of the gods' let me attempt a humble interpretation:
"The gov't of Germany is .... unable to respond to your e-mail messages ... something something blah blah ... due to the fact that we are currently invading Uzbekistan."
Hope that clears things up.
Stand Your Ground,

All you beautiful, musical people,
What is happening in the world on Midnight Oil? First, I get a
postcard in the mail from my local Borders books saying that can't complete
my order for DTS Capricornia...huh? They say it is "NOT YET READY at the
publisher and no due date has been given". Hummmm.
Then, I try to reorder the German Cap from Amazon.de, my first attempt
being qite accidentally diverted to Usbekistan...and it wo't allow me to
complete the order. I have three copies in my cart, have selected proper
address on file, and I keep getting "**Bitte korrigierin Sie unten die
markieren Bereiche**, and, under each item, "Leider hat der oden angefuhrte
eine begrenzte Bestellmange. Bitte verringern Sie die Bestellmenge." Say
what? Anybody? Yasmin? Andre? WHY WON'T THEY TAKE MY MONEY!! (I'm
getting antsy, two of these are gifts.)
And, of course, the Peter thing. A Co-worker joked to me how he heard
a DJ saying "dozens of midnight oil fans will now be upset that they won't
release any more one-hit CDs." Needless to say, I was livid. Hope I don't
eventually lose my job over this...
What is going on in the world of Midnight Oil? Oh, and didn't I read
somewhere that they were going to contribute a track to a "Free Tibet" CD?
Or was it just a dream...
Am I so confused(?),
Matt Mesina, who can't take the hands from his face
