I second that i have been serving Diablo for quite a long time now. He's a nice really once you get to know him. You have to watch out for his mood swings though.
Long live progression.

"dreamers and outcasts privy to uncommon beauty"

While not being able explaining this to non-proggers. According to them I'm a beer-drinking idiot with weird musical tastes.

The entity or the PC game? BTW, ironic that Divine Divinity is a Diablo clone...kind of like making a Command and Conquer clone called "Isolationism"

I think it's extremely pompous to state that prog listeners are "above the norm" in any way.  I mean, prog is my favorite genre, but I love everything from punk to folk.  So does also liking these other genres make me less intelligent than the rest of you?

Please, we're just people with a weird musical taste.

But it's OK, weird is great!!!!!  Nothing more boring that having a regular taste.

I haven't evolved to fins yet. I'm an annelid, which makes it very difficult for me to type. I have to hit key after key with the frontal end of my body. My sense of hearing is very restricted, and my ganglion is not fit for understanding the finer subleties of music, so I stick to prog.

A mixture of everything except the stoner thing for me. 

Then again, I got a terrible headache after not drinking tea in two days, and it laste for a day and a half, until I cooked a pot, and then everything just felt AWESOME. So, maybe the stoner bit, too. I should stop drinking those three litres a day...

 But, in general, I'd say that proggers are more pretentious than the average music fan. So I voted for no. 1, since I thought it was the most significant.
