Now now.. let's all get along. It's only Rock'n'Roll. Life's too short for pointless bickering. And you're all special.

Love and Scones,

Thanks Bernie-
 
   OF COURSE I know about that one!\":)
   It is a favorite of mine.  I have followed it since about 2003 (saw your 'tron refurbished on it).  As an ELT, I really learned a lot of stuff from it.  Jerry is great, and very helpful with technical queries.  Ken has a wonderful, witty approach to the write-ups.  But, these things just don't last forever.
   One could call it a third user group.  I certainly feel like a member.

Bruce,

The third group is moneypit, maintained by Ken Leonard (who, oddly enough, is a member of the Mellotronists group, but not this one). It's dedicated to the refurbishing efforts of Jerry Korb, so it's rarely updated.
