Interesting!

Just got me thinking:

Wouldn't it be great to have a timeline, or a tree, about synth designers, 
and what products they were working on, in different companies?
(Like those graphics you find on some musicians, and in what groups they 
played.)

I guess there will be a lot af contributions from list members about their 
personal heroes ...
We just need somebody who collects the data and makes some nice pictures ...
Anybody volunteering?
