Well Rob, ignorant or not, what this industry has become of today, from how people take care of themselves, excuse me the lack of how people take care of themselves, to how people abuse themselves and disrespect their surrounding co-workers with illegal substance and lack of simple kind gestures of basic respectful work of conduct to how to present themselves (Mary Carey being a prime example) it does boil down to being a damn shame that it's going to make another tragic situation to make any little bit of change to better the industry. Because the last few years, it certainly hasn't been changing for the better, it's going down hill. Even plenty has changed since you left and you even saw how bad it was becoming when you were still in CA.

But if you really want to hear true ignorance from me, comparing now to 6 years ago (before you came out here) when there were more people who enjoyed their work sober, took care of themselves at least as far as hygiene and had some amount of respect for others to what it is today which is scum. Watching it continuously going downhill filled with people who don't care about anything but how many scenes they can squeeze in a week to fork out thousands of dollars for whatever reason. I honestly dont really care what happens with the industry anymore. I only care enough to the extent of what I can say and do to help when the time comes and someone wants my help, my time, what I can donate, but I know I don't have the power to make some changes for the better. Aside from the fact that life goes on, those who seek being in the industry for the rest of their lives if possible or actually care about the industry they work in; it's their turn to try and make it a better place if they dare. Energy spent trying to improve things in the biz is merely a waste when nothing has been done but raise the price of the AIM test yet again when no new additional panels have been added to the norm. And AIM doesn't fool me, I know the going price for lab work these days.

The biz is turning into a huge joke and it didn't just start from AVNs shady business either. You can't deny a big part of it. We have friggin 18yr olds that haven't been in the adult industry for a year let alone have lived as a independent responsible adult, speaking and representing the industry on mainstream television. LOL what a joke. That's just the start of it.





Gen, the ignorant part is thinking that the industry has not always been that way. You complain about performers using drugs on set like it is a recent development... sorry Gen but that has been going on since the first camera captured penetration.

You probably are just noticing it more now that you are now less naive then you were then.

It just happens that a percentage of people in porn are going to use drugs... and guess what... it is like that in the normal world at well. I mean is the mall going to hell because the kids from Foot Locker were smoking a blunt behind the building. Is Disney going to hell because the cast members get wasted on a nightly basis.

Do i think it is a good thing, no. But, i cannot be judgmental as I have dealt with my own drug issues.

As far as 18yr olds representing the industry on TV.... that sounds like sour grapes from 6yrs of being unrecognized. Sorry, i don't say it being mean, i am just saying how that statement comes off.

You may not care about the biz, but well... I do. You say helping out is a waste of time... well you have biotech training supposedly... why don't you go down and volunteer at AIM, not paid but volunteer, maybe reduce their overhead.

It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
