In a previous article, irsman@iastate.edu (That Ian Guy) says:

Yep, he does appear to be quite the flake...lotsa top-quality bafflegab
hype, though. Born politician, if only he hadn't inhaled.

If there is still any doubt about VAMPS being a hoax, try comparing (ie.
byte for byte) some of the IFF sounds that have supposedly been highly
processed with the fresh-from-an-Amiga-MOD originals...no difference.

I only briefly glanced at the NoiseTracker v1.0d thingy on csa2 before
losing it from my RAMdisk to a non-recoverable fatal error, but I saw
little to indicate that it had been re-assembled (or
"re-assembled/re-compiled" as he put it), particularly by someone who
had previously indicated that he knows no programming (and who's every
comment supports this). New title-page, edited text in the about boxes,
that's about it.
