Hello all,
I hate to be a curmudgeon, but the traffic on this list is getting hard
to
manage! Could people try to limit their responses to the list to stating
their opinion once and perhaps have their conversations about the
relative
merits of synthesizers in private email discussions?
Getting overwhelmed with messages!!!
