A Lot of you have been asking. I have a LOT of info I am sorting through and compiling but here are the basics.
AIM IS CLOSING
Everyone there pretty much bad mouthed AIM, even Jeffery Douglas, who made the most retarded comments of the day stating that the biggest threat of HIV comes from outside performers coming into the biz, not from gay crossovers. He also said that of all the Positives that The LA Times posted over thirty of them were people NOT in porn who tested at AIM. There is NO WAY that is true. if you do the math AIM would have to test many many thousands of people NOT in the industry to catch 30 + positives.
One performer noted AIMS history of false positives for STDs and suggested that TalentTesting was far better.
The FSC is trying to organize talent into a “network” or “Organization” they specifically avoided terms like union or guild. Talent is expected to pay to be a part of this. This will include a network of doctors for testing and a new database that they continually pointed out would have “Mistakes” at first. Testing will be priced as low as they can. And all of this should be up and running in 2-4 weeks.
OK stop laughing, I’m just giving ya the gist of it LOTS more coming as I sort through it all.

So, now everybody starts bad-mouthing AIM… Brave souls.
AIM was so fucked up with how they represented talent, they had to have been being paid off by somebody. Some of the ways they handled test results, it just made no sense otherwise.
Mike, your new Capt.-Save-A-Hoe victim, what’d she do at the convention?
Which one….there’s so many LOL
So… if the FSC starts their own testing service, does this mean if I join them I will be protected against HIV the same way they protect their members against FBI inspections and tube piracy?
Where do I sign up? That’s the best one stop shopping ever!
The only one I would know anything about, Monica.
