the email was not a fiction, but a FACT - so eat humble pie MF

i was the other person, i don't have any handle on gil's business
exploits but as one who was at the recieving end of a public witch 
hunt after i had lost my home, record collection, income, business 
& nearly my family and couldnt send out a few lousy records i can 
empathize..

in my 2 1/2 years on this list Gil has been one of the handful of 
sane minds in an ocean of insular- childish bullshit concerned
with such irrelevant peripherals such as limited editions, label 
worship and one-upmanship 

IDM is an instutional organization of ignorance

IDM is now the home of the passive consumer, more concerned with
the cosmetic value of the finished artifact than understanding 
the *true* price being payed by the artist gifted with a creative
mind

IDM is dead

UNSUBSCRIBE

my final words on IDM & to quote minor threat 

"at least im fucking trying..WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE?"
