i think the last really big thread i remember was the "warp fell off" free-for-all a few months ago. perhaps that perception has something to do with it? if warp is considered the birthplace and bastion of IDM, and the IDM list (as i learned a few months back), and their activity has been, shall we say, less than stellar, might that not affect the list traffic? there seems to have been some lack of activity/rumors of closing down about mille plateaux as well (although they seem to be reactivating soon). years ago i used to belong to a list discussing world serpent-related artists (WSD-L). when 5 or 6 of their major artists left, the list erupted into a fury of posts and then died down into nothingness. i was still subscribed but stopped getting posts. world serpent itself eventually closed, this past august. d. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
