Is Modulus still in Business?

I'll also add that I've tried Joe's personal e-mail address at Modulus several times since March, as I had a parts order in with him. When I sent it in March, the e-mail went through but wasn't responded to. When I tried him again last week, it was returned to me as undeliverable...

Unless you spelled the email address wrong it was delivered. I've been talking with him per usual so the email works. I do get the message error email back but if you actually read it, it's a virus message.
 
This is no virus message:

For what it's worth:
In March of 2013 Wikipedia's entry regarding Modulus was:
"Modulus Guitars is an American manufacturer of musical instruments"
As of May 22nd, 2013 Wikepedia's entry regarding Modulus was: "Modulus Guitars was an American manufacturer of musical instruments"

Yes, but basically any idiot can change any Wikipedia page - that's why it isn't allowed to be quoted by High School students doing research papers (at least in my kids' schools) ;)

While I understand the dilemma, it should also be pointed out that any idiot can also write a book.

With Wikipedia, crowd sourcing affords the opportunity for non-idiots to immediately correct misinformation.

Books and papers probably have more reliable peer review and oversight, but it comes more slowly. And once something is published, it's more difficult to retract misinformation.
 
There needs to be an "Actual news about the situation" thread. I'm tired of coming back and seeing the same old revolving set of musings and assumptions. I'm very interested in the outcome, but don't really care about guesses and arguments over guesses.

Ok, in reality, most everyone in this thread is in the same boat as me, but it's frustrating to see activity that is never actually real info.

THIRTY-EIGHT PAGES OF IT
