If I were a Vegas odds maker, I'd lay 4:1 will either be ignored - or you'll be forced to bump it at least twice more before anyone lifts a finger to merge em.
Don't take those odds. :) I've been working on and off on that post for a couple weeks now. Most of my merging work has been around pages 710-712 lately... [even yours I will get to John.]
I hope you never grow up, because that's when you start growing old, and who wants/needs that! So stay in school because you're never too old to learn, or to gawk at pretty lil' things in short skirts and knee high stockings ; )
I have no idea if the v.i.p. reish is actual the original Ratcage mix. I've never actually heard that mix, but I highly doubt it is that mix. It sounds too weird and eq tampered with to be a vintage 80s hc/punk mix. I may just send b9 an email to see what they say.
How's it goin?
