"Sorry Ron. As I said, perhaps I should not have risen to the bait of Jim's "don't have clue about the UK any more" but it was such a gift.

He responded with a predictably slanderous and abusive personal attack so I felt I had to respond in the place the attack was made. He escalated the conflict and so it goes. He tried a similar technique on Alan Whittle's "Keith and Jim - a love story?" shit stirring thread (Why wasn't it killed at birth?) where he succeeded in making the right wingers look like the good guys.

There possibly should be a thread on how those of us who are working hard to promote the music we love should repair the damage that was done thirty years ago but I fear it would turn into a bloodbath. "
