Goths in The Guardian newspaper

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Of academic interest only to us I guess, although they seem to listen to The Sisters of Mercy a lot.

That's the basic gist of it. Is goth really that interesting to the average Guardian reader that they need to read the same story from four different people?

I've known Mel since ago; her hubby is on HL as I recall.
