Gosh Rich. What has your personal life to do with technical discussions on
a net aimed at amps lovers? What are your motives behind all your
intellectual quarrels that you love so much?
By the way, I would like to know the background of this amps reflector. Who
started it? Why? Who takes care of it? I am a newcomer to this reflector and
I understand there is a lot that we babies with our red cheeks and blue eyes
ought to know. What is the background behind those aggresive messages? What
has happened in the past?
Someone? 73 de Hans
