Okay, so who are these corrupt shills?  The ones who don't believe what they're saying about the instruments they supposedly use?  The ones who can be bought off with a handful of harmonicas, even harps they don't really like and wouldn't otherwise use?

Pending an answer to that question, I tend to think that the opinions expressed on this list are always the poster's own.  I don't have a good reason to think otherwise.
