        Listen, I’m withholding judgement on the whole thing until I hear from the guy who designed the recycle bin icon.

      Brian Eno is a world renowned musician, producer, composer, etc…

      Should probably do a quick Google search before acting like he’s some unknown.

          Or I’ll do what you did and make a big deal out of not caring what you think because I disagree with you.
