I was first contacted by NakedSword in about 1999 to have my video content streamed PPV! They called me!! A really nice guy, who wasn't much of a salesman.

I turned him down, thinking that I was not good enough, big enough, and was not shooting enough on an on-going basis to sustain a catalog.

That was ONE of the dumbest things I've done in my life. Now, they don't return my e-mails. (Yet all of my catalog is next door at AEBN.)

A partner of mine was doing webcams with Porno- or Porna-something around 1999 as well. Maybe 1998.

That would have me or my assistant making that call in 1999! I recently wrote an article about how Naked Sword began (I was employee #1):

What a great read! In 1999, I didn't have 30 VHS tapes, maybe 15.

Again, ONE of the dumbest mistakes I've made in this biz.
