Re: [ARSCLIST] The Incompetence at ENHS
Mr. Newton is moderating a very useful list, a thankless job (Thanks,
Graham.)
As modereator, he follows the standards set up by ARSC.
The issue you raise involves two ARSC members.
I believe we agreed that one useful function of the list was to alert other
members of the list of those dealing in bad faith, according to the lights
of the folks involved. This related to those selling records and misgrading
them severly, miserable packaging, etc.- a notification issue further to 78C
where it would, presumably, be initiated.
OK. We have been notified.
Many of us know Jerry and his funding problems. He is an experienced
government employee of some longevity, generous with the information he
curates within the limits his job sets.ly .
The place to negotiate resolution of the issue you bring up is not the ARSC
list, however. It's up to you to find a proper forum.
I'm sure we'd all be interested in knowing how this came out once it has
been adjudicated with all parties under oath.
A communication from Sam Brylawski was published to this list a while ago in
which he suggested that the Edison recordings were not free of copyright.
You might consider that before making your web posting.

It is interesting to note that my website www.myspace.com/edisonrecords is
far more imaginative, artistic, scholarly and interesting than anything a
blowhard like Mr. Newton has ever done.

responds that it is no longer available.
I'm not sure that this kind of "dirty linen" complaint belongs on the ARSC
list.
There are always two sides to every story and without input from the other
side, this must be discarded... we are not arbitrators or mediators for
this kind of gripe.
As a list moderator, I got sucked into mediating such a complaint a short
time ago, only to ultimately find that it involved the princely sum of $5
and wasted a lot of my time. As did happen in this case, the complainent
posted his grievance on a few related mail lists and solicited the readers
to get involved.
We would all be well advised to let Mr. Loughlin hire a legal mouthpiece
to fight his battles for him.
