        I would say this pretty much sums up both my own personal 
        opinions on the subject and the traditional official 
        policy of the echo re Zep, not proggy enough to be called 
        a prog band but worthy of an honourary status that allows 
        them to be discussed even though it's sort of stretching 
        things to say they are on topic. We've never had Zep 
        discussions get out of hand so far so there's no problem. 
 
                                Cheers, 
                                Kenneth
