A Word of Thanks is due to people who added to my Music Collection and to those who have been a source of inspiration for my various activities :

• Bullen (Ireland) : After seeing his CD-only collection in 1993. I realised that Tapes were going to be Dinosaurs and I shifted to my focus to collecting CDs. Am I glad I did ?
• Mikkel (Denmark) : responsible for my first encounter with Floyd RoIOs
• Asaf (Israel) : the “angel” who started it all
• fly2mars (Israel) : landed here in India with a dream in his mind,
  travel guide in his hand and floyd CDs in his bag (for me, of course)
• Slava (Latvia) : inspired me to make my own MP3 collections way back in 1997 cuz his floyd and led zep archives on CD-R were too costly at $20 a piece
• Mathew (Singapore) : He got a whole lotta bootin’ goin’ on !
• Freeloader (UK) : quenched my thirst for 80s POP by parting with a CD full of assorted stuff from his multi-gigabyte collection
• Kevin Foley (Australia) : of Outer Limits fame, the first website on the web which offered hundreds of MP3 downloads in 1997. Greatest Mp3 site ever, superb design, great content... I remember him, sadly, he doesn’t respond to e-mail now and I don’t know of his whereabouts.
• Frenchmen (Canada) : kept the Mp3 flame burning when the RIAA came knocking at everybody’s door. Rocked the world as a webDJ till year2000q1
• Clara (US) : bought me my first major consignment of Floyd Studio albums incl. Zabriskie Point Soundtrack when they weren’t available in India
• mojoworkin (India) : best pal that I have, spent months with him discussing projects and ventures to tap the New Order Economy... all of them are unfinished... shall I say, unstarted ?
• Ash (India): unlimited supply of Net access passwords made me become such a big Net Junkie
• Raman : for providing me Leased Bandwidth at his workstation for those Multi-Meg Downloads way back in 1998.
• People who generously lent their CDs to be ripped :
  mojo, GV, Kranti, GunMan, SidMan, MoG, PRRR, San222, Golfer, wonko, Rattan
• Absolut Vodka... always makes me go back to the Blues
• ??? on Echoes Board (an unknown guy whom I exchanged some mail with) who got me hooked to Jefferson Airplane in 1997.
• JBartee : plagiarized his web design and RoIO scan thumbnails
• Mikko (Finland)  : did some music for me which I think I had missed out in my growing years. What and amazing collection... 1000’s of CDs.. droool !
• Bellocity : for the constant trading and filling me up with Grateful Dead stuff.
• ANGEL : kept a check on my NetSurfing and prevented me from passing into a state of social dysfunction :)
