what really happened to j. skul

> dekay, gossiping, poor taste/judgement are you for real? js is or was a public figure and im sure he would understand a long time subscribers interest in the sudden departure of a senior editor given the one line response by j. atkison regarding his absence from the mag.<

Uhhhh, yes.

> i was really interested in any readers opinion of stereophiles take on this, as you can see from the responses people all had different opinions on the issue but none came out with an over the top attack on my motive in asking the question. by the by, who set you up as arbiter of taste and judgement?<

Leona.

> i asked myself why is thi guy such a tight ass on this and then i read your bio. now i understand. this hobby is about love of music and the equipment that makes it sound great. i don't have time for your bitterness, so adios dekay

Bless you, my son.

> meisterkleef,i thought about your comment re;scull and at the risk of pissing off that great arbiter of taste and judgement,dekay, i think you were interested in his stuff for the same reason as i,he was extremly entertaining,even if you disagreed with his sometime esoteric views on audio

Thanks!

> he always made yoU THINK AND SOMETIME LAUGH.

Yeah, man, everyone takes this so effin' seriously. I think I know why, 'cause your system IS you, such a reflection of your tastes and style (if any... )

> I HOPE HE HOOKS UP WITH ANOTHER AUDIO MAG,TAS? EVEN THOUGH HP HAS STATED NO WAY FOR WHAT EVER HIS REASONS

No, no... happily settled into Monster Cable now for seven months in the marketing/pr side. I love it. And it's nice to make a living.

>SCULL HAS A FOLLOWING, MY SELF INCLUDED, WHO CONSIDER HIM VERY ENTERTAINING IN AN INDUSTRY THAT SOMETIMES TAKES ITSELF WAY TO SERIOUSLY.

YESSS!, I mean, yes.

> saxo,tell us how you really feel.

I think I know how he really feels, if he's the RGPC dealer I think he might be.

> i agree the ribbon chair was a bit much

Dunno, involved the old lady, she found it, pretty comfortable place to listen to music from.

> and his nickname of j10 was oh so precious,

Given my Corey Greenberg on TAN in the early 90s. Corey wasn't so "precious".

> but didn't you get a yuk out of some of his stuff?

I hope so...

> come on saxon

Yeah, Jim, come on...

> even if his reviews were not world class i think the entertainment value was worth something.

Yeah!

> i have read the anti scull responses and they seem to fall into two catagorys, those that disliked his professional reviews and those who for what ever reason hated the guy.<

Yeah, it's a mystery.

> i can never get as angry at anyone as you appear to be at scull, what's up with that?

Yeah?!

> peace and tranquility saxon,relax and enjoy the music.

Good idea.

"Saxo"... Saxo... this wouldn't be John Saxon, the "reviewer" audio salesman who went beserk at the RGPC review? Or are you a mysterious "other".
JS

I thought J. Skull to be perhaps the most pompous, arrogant reviewer out there, whose reviews revealed mostly how full of himself he was

> saxo,tell us how you really feel.

Well, I looked at your profile, maybe you're not Jim Saxon, I think I called him John at some point... so apologies if you're not him.
