What another one?

[Rob]

Well, as the marketing gurus at RCA say, " There is not such thing as bad
products, just bad prices"!

Think of how many synths there are out there that are just c_ap but still
were a blast to use. I mean, its great to have a modular that can be given
to your grandchildren and still be in a very good condition, but otoh if the
price is right, bob, you got a winner!

Now, I just need to get offa my duff and start buying up some MOTM, Oakley,
and Blacet stuff to see what all the bruhaha is now that surprisingly it
looks like my contract is being bought out by RCA to make me a real employee
soon. They like me, they really like me! ;)
Chalk one up to massive buttkissing! If I knew it was this powerful I would
have honored and wielded it like a samurai wields his katana.
