I have a used copy of Politics of Ecstacy I'll send to anyone that doesn't have it yet (shame on you). It has some ugly scratches, but only it skips near the outro of "The Learning". It only skips in my main cd player (not in my others), so I can't tolerate it and I bought a new copy. It's my favorite cd, so it has to be perfect in all of my cd players. Maybe it won't skip in yours at all. It's free, so nothing lost. I just hate to waste a killer cd if someone else can get enjoyment out of it, especially NM! Let me know.
