From: "Aran M. Parillo" <xxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx> >As I never traded with him, the only instance of his misdoings >I can attest to was his forwarding a ficticious email conversation >between he and another listmember. 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?" sm
