From: at-banff (98/8/14) Regarding: People at Banff, Gem-boy gets slagged off a lot on this mailing list it is important to recognize that he is not the bane of our existence nor is he a problem in himself the two words "gem-boy" are a metaphor the metaphor represents the much bigger picture of favoritism, hypocrisy and elitism that is so intrinsic to the banff centre and the organized art world at large - from The Senior Administrator.
