Subject: Re: [korgpolyex] Fence sitters

From: Daniel Forro <dan.for@...>

Mike,

count me please as well, I've been following the development
carefully waiting for better news about progress, and curing my bank
account in the meantime. My EX800 can't sleep how she's looking
forward to the new guts.
Hearing about better halfs reminded me I have also an advisor in such
unimportant things for gear addicted person, like which instrument or
equipment buy or better not buy. But I have total freedom in such
important fields like my relation to mosquitos, my opinion on UFO,
God yes or no or so... at least. C'est la vie. (Still I think your
wife must be an angel :-), not easy life with uncommon people like us
musicians or anybody creative who wants to leave something behind.)

Keep good work, don't give up... A flower, perfume, everyday washing
the dishes or invitation to the good restaurant from time to time
make miracles, you know.

Daniel Forro
