    Hey guys!

    Great podcast. I just want to clear up something. The survey on Jim's website regarding "Whitey" is not in response to the email that I sent to him. I sent him that message using his terminology. I believe I first heard him use the term on the press conference video and later on his website. I am not a "griefer." I am a First Nations male from Little Black Bear's Indian Reserve in Saskatchewan but I am currently attending SFU in Vancouver. Seeing that he put my twitter message on his webpage, I do regret having sent it. It was totally sarcastic and meant to get under his skin and nothing more. I simply wanted to piss him off as much as he pissed me off with that headband/feathers comment.

    The AC/DC video was taken off his website due to a email campaign that I helped organize on the Facebook group "Boycott Jim Pankiw, Boycott Racism," we recieved a few emails back from contacts at the record labels advising us that they would look into the alleged infringement asap…the video was down within 48 hours.

    Anyways…No, I am not racist against "Whitey" – I just hate Jim and wanted to get under his skin.

      Hey, thanks so much for commenting. We suspected the message was sent to get under Jim Pankiw's skin.
