Listen to what else Mr. Gershman recently did. I recently found out that Gil hacked into the IDM members list at majordomo and downloaded all the member names & addresses. Then he proceeded to e-mail all the labels and artists listed in the IDM members list asking for promos! I'm sure many of those artists and labels weren't too happy with that. Unfortunately, some of those people do not know of Mr. Gershman's unsavory nature and will send the promos. Hopefully they will see this warning and reconsider sending him their promotional material. I second the vote that Gil be banned from this list because hacking into the IDM members list for personal gain is not what I call reputable. -->-Lance--- p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states

Brit. libelled, libelling) (1) defame by libelous statements. (2) accuse falsely and maliciously. ------------------------------------------ last time i checked, this was illegal and very-much punishable by law. now will someone please teach me *how* to hack into Hyperreal? maybe i can find a typeface with a schwa symbol and one of those funky 'i's with a bar mark and accent over it. i'm no expert, but hacking must be more involved than sending a "subscribe idm" message to "majordomo@hyperreal.com." if this is hacking, then ... damn. guess i'm a hacker.
