charging from the bass knives to the treble

Started reading Leaving Reality Behind which is about the struggle between etoy and e-Toys. Am enjoying it muchly. But there was one little quibbly thing that bugged me well out of proportion to its importance in the book. Which is to say, it has almost none. It's a tossed-off reference, possibly actually made by one of the members of etoy, which cites Chumbawamba as the source of the line "they think it's funny turning rebellion into money." Fail! The line is from "(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais" by the Clash. It's possible that one of the etoy guys misremembered where the quote came from. But I think one of the authors, or one of their editors, could've checked the reference and gotten it right.
