Since I seem to be on trial here...

I was never part of the "Doors Inner Circle" (an actual group of tapers/traders that had a website for awhile, by invitation only) and I had just recently obtained a replacement copy of the Doors Complete Matrix Tapes KTS boot from doors kicks-ass ftp, a boot that has stood the test of time for folks not in any inner circles (until recently widely acknowledged as best available version) so my comment was influenced by that particular version and label.

Since it is the only KTS boot I ever listened to (to my knowledge), my statement with "Unless" was not a good statement for me to make. So I misspoke a word or two, somewhere where you could find it...Feel Better Now? (Guilty As Charged)

Go search the google news groups back from 1989-1995, I am sure you will find a rich vein there to continue poking fun at me until hell freezes over. It is all a learning process for me, while you seem to be mired in your certainties.

Yeah, all two are boots (one "Silver", one CDr(x)). The Miles Singen show was never in wide circulation until I seeded it, first at STG and then at DIME. I spent many hours going through that show fixing all of these little 10 ms-100 ms one-channel dropouts, literally searching sample-by-by sample. As I've learned from you, maybe these were "markings"? They are all unaudible now, but listed in my info.

The other seed was by request.

Since you "bought" that Miles Davis show, what leads you to believe that you didn't purchase nothing more than a tape copy of a bootleg? What makes you so positive that you "bought" a pre-bootleg cassette??? (Maybe a boot seller 'told' you so?...)

What sort of comparisons did you perform on both the tape/bootleg to be 100% certain that your copy is indeed a a 'pre-bootleg' copy and not just another higher gen copy recorded directly off the bootleg???

Go back and read the post, and quit making your selective quotations that only serve to mislead. I never said I was "positive" it was not sourced from some bootleg, you said it.

The booter told me nothing about lineage, my reasoning was thus: My timings did not match the bootleg "Sing in Singen", as listed on an internet site, but they did match Peter Losin's timings, back when he collected cassette tapes. So *maybe* my show was from an earlier branch in the lineage. You'll note that I called it an aud and someone came back to correct me, it was "too good" to be an aud, and I told him I really didn't know, then I tried to make a reasonable guess. I suppose it is possible that a booter retracked "Sing in Singen" to match Peter Losin's timings exactly, but that seemed extremely unlikely, so I am fairly positive it was not sourced from that particular boot. I never said anything like "100% certain" it was not sourced from some boot, you said it in another attempt to mislead. (Found Innocent).

Court adjourned...for good.

And by all means please follow up and finish this topic with some famous last words. Like maybe you can top your last zinger

I notice some people here at TTD have adopted that as their .sig now. What a great contribution you have made to the friendly atmosphere at TTD!

Really, freezer, I respect your knowledge, but I am tired of your constant ad hominem attacks. Didn't mommy breastfeed you when you were a baby?
As they used to say on Usenet, "plonk"...(now where is that killfile feature on the tracker??)
