    I found this on Floyd's website. It is under miscellany/backroom. It is a listing of all Pink Floyd contributors through the years. What exactly is the great rip-off scandal?

    Lawrence, Norman
    Accountant since 1976 who uncovered the great rip-off scandal circa 1979. Died in 1998.

    Hey, I guess the old, bloated concept album came in handy.

    They'd only made a couple million pounds from "Dark Side of the Moon"??

    Also, according to the Mark Blake Comfortably Numb book, almost all of the Norton Warburg venture capital enterprises either underperformed, or were outright failures.
