Hey Jim, it's even more fun when they do the bronchyoscopy(sp?) at the same 
time! But the best part was when they pulled out the gallbladder, that laid me 
back for a while! 'Twas a wee bit of a rough spring, this year. ;-)=

I'm getting started on designing the circuitry for the cymbals and high-hats to 
complete my Monster Drum Synth. I'm thinking of multi-zone triggers for each 
one in order to get a different mix of crash/ride/bell sounds depending on 
striking position. I am designing a hit-hat pedal as well, with position and 
acceleration outputs. Any and all suggestions/comments/discussions are welcome 
and appreciated!

Take care,
Doug
