George, I hope this isn't autobiographical?  ;D

Me too. Time will tell, I guess.

You spend 90 minutes on the phone with a friend in New York cross referencing Richter recordings for him on the internet as he sits in a record shop deciding whether to by a cd....and both of you find this time well spent....and fun. :)

"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."

...the most popular composer you listen to is Sorabji.

And courtesy one David Hurwitz: the "three B's" means Bax, Boughton and Bach (W.F.).

"B" as in "B movie?"

You wake up chuffed that you composed an awesome symphony in your dream but then realise it is was actually Sibelius and you were having a big old happy delusion.

Your little daughter asks for a Barbie on her birthday and you bought her the Barbirolli Mahler 5th on EMI.

When you think that Carlo Maria Giulini was once mayor of New York...

You are sent by your work to an ACCESS database course, and during the class you are thinking of all of the ways the database could be used for storing all your classical music information.  ;D

I checked out a book on Linux programming a few weeks ago, and throughout the book the newly learnt stuff is implemented by building bits and pieces of a CD collection DB.

  You feel that Wagner's Ring Cycle could be extended a few more hours

  You convince yourself that each and every J.S. Bach cantata is a unique and undying masterpeice

  Your erotic fantasies involve acting out Tristan und Isolde with your girlfriend

  You can identify which arias/ensembles from Verdi's operas come from which Verdian operas and you don't even speak Italian........
