i know he's been asked this a whole lot of times, but could you possibly ask him on his thoughts regarding emo? i mean, the emo scene today. over the years, he's made it explicitly clear that Rites Of Spring and Embrace and bands within and following that vein are all punk rock to him but i never really read or heard about him giving his thoughts on bands like Pg.99 or City Of Caterpillar whose sound could be identified by most as emo/screamo and indirectly takes influence from the type of hardcore he was making way back when. that's just me talking out of my ass though.
