Dr. Tom on behalf of 1WSW has made some extremely fraudulent claims
regarding Noisetracker. He has also done some ethically questionable things
involving copyright infringement. That is not the sort of thing *I* would
want to be associated with. As it stands today 1WSW is the equivalent to a
seal of disapproval. Anything distributed by 1WSW will automatically be
suspect. SUre this may be considered guilt by association, but it is a
natural distrust stemming from outright lies.
