I'm sympathetic to skeptical inquiry but a bit burnt out on the whole CSICOP side of things. Still, if it keeps him happy.

Ann features prominently in the Klaus Nomi documentary and in February Arthur and I saw her at the special LA screening where she and Kristian H., a v. good friend of Arthur, answered questions afterward. She seemed to be in good spirits!

Yeah, the CSICOP thing is a pretty stale bun, that's for sure. Exposing the ear candlers as rip-off merchants seems a bit ridiculous when the Enron guys are walking free with billions in the bank.

How about the over-the-top description of Kramer's legacy though. I mean, is he really "an ex-rock star"?

one year passes...
Kramer doesn't work for the James Randi Foundation any more. He is producing (or possibly has finished producing) the new Dot Allison album and has a new label "Second Shimmy". The debut release (due Oct. 2006) is "I Killed the Monster - 21 Artists Performing the Songs by Daniel Johnston", featuring performances by Dot Allison, Jad Fair & Kramer, Daniel Smith and Sufjan Stevens, Kimya Dawson, Major Matt Mason, Jeff Lewis, Joy Zipper, and Kramer himself, among others.

eight years pass...

Anyone hear The Brill Building? Don't know what he's doing these days. I've got about 4 of his solo albums, mostly very good.

five years pass...

Kramer has a new music project: Let It Come Down. Working with singer Xan Tyler. Sorta sounds like Kramer's take on This Mortal Coil. Sometimes it sounds a lot like the Moles. Good stuff! Less shaggy than a lot of his work.

I just listened to the few official videos, I wondered if I was hearing a bit of Kramer's vocals, I hope he's still singing.

He's singing on some of it. The album is good all the way through.

Okay, this is a read and a half:

Could do with some more questions tbh.

1. What if I threw your car keys in the lake?
2. What if I scratched all your Sister Sledge?
3. What if I twisted it in like a knife?
