Forwarded from: Ed the Sock <mailat_private> Hey-- I appreciate your support, but it wasn't Toronto that decided to do the MuchUSA thing. It was MuchUSA, a separate company. Believe me, Toronto was not/is not happy about it. MuchUSA relented and agreed to carry my show, then backed away again after the e-mails stopped coming. They stopped coming because MUSA said they'd carry the show.
