That brings up an interesting point. I don't like any music playing when
I'm gaming as I think it masks environmental cues I use to tell where
people are. I just crank the music volume to zero, but does that really
turn the music subsystem _off_? If not, is there a way to simply not
even load those libraries?

P.S. Am I just being dense: Is there a way to look through the list
archives online? Better yet, I'd love to just have the whole list
history as a big, fat mbox file...
