Amateur human being? Yeah.....I don't think that came out like you intended...I think we all know what you meant.......I've always kinda wondered about Gene's vices...lyrics on The Fine Line & Relapse relate very well to certain addictions...

Well, I first off want to say, I don't think you come off as a moron at all.
Please let me know where you were misquoted and I will print a correction in the next issue. It is our policy not to edit or change any direct quotes from anyone, be they good or bad quotes... not to put any words in anyone's mouth... that would be totally disrespectful. Of course, trying to go back and transcribe interviews is not always an exact science, and mistakes are made. I'm really sorry if that happened, but we will be glad to fix that.

Yeah, I sincerely apologize about this not coming out in a way that you are happy with Mike... I'm not sure what you think makes you look like a moron. I did have a brand new recorder that I was using for the first time, that was why I called you back on the one question, because there was a ton of feedback for some reason on my end. I felt like I got everything direct, and on some things that I couldn't get transcribed because of the audio issues on my end, I just left out. Maybe I should have included them and just paraphrased the quotes, but then I would run the risk of misquoting...
Again, I would like to know what you don't like so we can get it corrected in the next issue. We tried to handle this issue very respectfully because it is such a sensitive thing. I know that I screwed up my own part when I said "I felt like an insider digging into a sensitive area"... I meant to write that "I felt like an outsider digging into a sensitive area". I know I make mistakes, just sorry that this one got you - any help on exactly what you are referencing?

Just read the article. I thought the whole thing was very well written and very helpful in getting to know Gene better, as I never knew him. I didn't really see anything that looked bad - even his mom said in the beginning to make Gene look like a real person, and that's how he was described. Good and bad. No one can relate to someone that has no human side.
