Hello Olivier and group members....

As many of you know... I am (or was) coloraturafan on youtube. Yes, my channel was closed today. This is due to a copy right claim made by "Mariella Devia." As we all know, Ms. Devia had nothing to do with this claim on youtube. Rather, this is a desperate measure taken by someone who doesn't like me. My account on youtube had over 1800 videos, and I had invested much time, hard work, and love of the art. The account was closed last year, and at that time I fought the claim and won. Unfortunately, it is a long and hard fight (last time it took over a month). I don't think I have the energy to fight it again. I have sent youtube a standard letter denying the copy right claim, so we will see what happens from here on.

Wish me luck!

Dillon
