jonandbt (10:18): only the letter L. Breathe guys.
mikeshinoda (10:18): a lot of songs are written about being "on tour" -- that song is from the person at home's perspective. it's somewhat generalized, though. i thought that way, it would make a better story. it seems to relate to more than just that story though:
DarthYak (10:18): Only names starting with the Letter L submit questions
mikeshinoda (10:18): people whose parents are divorced, people who have someone away in the army, people whose parents/loved one work too much

kasaweb (10:20): How are we supposed to promote Fort Minor in a country (Morocco) where it's not distributed ? We have many hip hop lovers here, and i'm doing my best to introduce FM to them, even with mp3 of the album. Is MSR planing to expand the distributing ?

kaiti (10:20): I've been wanting to ask you this for a really long time but never had an opportunity .... What's it like to have so many people that you've never met singing these words that you helped write, both in LP and FM?Is that something that you can get used to?

mikeshinoda (10:25): What's your opinion on fans who constantly criticizes your work negatively? - some of them have a good point, a lot just differ in opiniion. a lot of times, they just haven't really listened to the songs. they just listen 1 or 2 times and form an opinion

jonandbt (10:27): letter H only
mikeshinoda (10:27): a lot of people criticize the more simple lines...you gotta realize that those lines are intentionally simple. like petrified. look how the song starts super simple and builds to a more complex pattern. it obviously not an accident
