Anybody see where I'm going with this?

(Clue 01: *Hobby*....)

(Clue 02: Feck-all to do with *the industry*.....)


What's really worrying though, Keith, is the fact that this guy is in
England. Setting aside the mobile phone style presentation, the spelling
and grammar, are awful. Is this really what our schools are turning out
now ? At least the American guy's mail to you yesterday, was presentable,
if a little flowery.


Yes, know what you mean. For some reason I take more badly with thicko posts
here than I do with thicko emails - not everyone is a typist and at least
they have made an effort to respond! (Although I reckon sloppy is as sloppy
does....!!) As I said earlier, I get a fairly regular stream of emails from
all over, due to the webpages and most of them are perfectly acceptable. The
English guy also posted in HTML - that's an even bigger ****er than no
capitals in my book!

(Maybe the guy's shift key is busted - bit like the 'broken daisywheel
printer joke': 'Ewar Woowar starring in The Wicker Man'..!! :-)

The important thing is (****e-looking emails aside) is rolling the hobby
along some - hobbyist 'audiophiles/enthusiasts' are a dying breed according
to some sources (AV and iPods taking over kinda thing), the only mystery is
why should I worry? I've already got more than enough kit and records I'll
not live long enough to play!!??
