Well - yes - you're right. That's the nature of the affliction, I
guess... Mission Creep <LOL>. I keep telling Will that it all started
when I was 13 and wanted guitar strings. I got a job asfter school...
then I bought a new guitar... and ever since then then mission has
been being re-defined with ever more expensive consequenses - him
being a primary example of the Mission Creep. So the synth is just
the latest example... a never-ending, ever-evolving gadget. <groan>
