Just a quick note to fingercruncher... I absolutely agree with you on the novelty pick thing 100%, but the stylus pick is a very thick pick that is made in such a way as to promote good alternate picking technique. If you don't pick properly it stops you dead in your tracks... check it out for yourself at

So. If you throw a cat out of a car window, is it considered "kitty litter"?
