Well, I could type in the whole article, but the thing is, it's an except from a longer interview (30 minutes from a 2-hour interview). If you send $5 to Industrial Gear, PO Box 747, Landsdowne, PA 19050, they'll send you a transcript of the entire interview within 6 weeks, and you can type it up for us. Or call them at 215.552.8805. Maybe Mike Gear can give someone the whole thing in an ASCII file to upload here? Hell, maybe he even reads a.m.n. or r.m.i. and will respond to this himself? Anyway, here's an excerpt of their excerpt (from Gear Mag, aka Industrial Gear Magazine, volume III monthly #5, August 1994, p20) ON THE 'NET I haven't been on the Internet for months since we became mobile. I'm still paying to be on in San Francisco which is an Internet address [referring to the Well perhaps?--payn]. And the whole thing is intriguing to me. I actually got into heated debates on, of all places, Prodigy! Which to me is a joke. I logged on to see if anyone had anything interesting to say, and I found a million bits of false information about nine inch nails. I actually left a note, but you can't have any user names there. Your own name pops up. And a million letters, "You're not Trent Reznor, fuck you!" I actually got kicked off. I logged on again to see andit said "You have been accused of using a pseudonym and we don't allow that here." So I was like, "Well, then fuck it." -- ___________ ______________________________________________________________ / payn@ \ "Let an artist show you how to bring a curse down on Satan" \ / scf.usc.edu / --Hilt / \____________/_____________________________________________________________/
