Frank, you've restored so many, I suspect the only thing you haven't seen in a Tron is Jimmy Hoffa's corpse.

Did you remember to add in some weed? I suspect so, otherwise what kind of idiot pours all that stuff into a Mellotron?
 
That wasn't a joke was it?

I ran my tron dry into a Mixmaster set on low for 30 seconds, then slowly mixed in 30 pounds of creamed butter, 16 1/2 pounds of sugar, a pinch of salt, three dozen beaten eggs, a teaspoon or two of vanilla extract and around 60 pounds of flour. I got some VERY interesting cookies after baking for 20 minutes in a 325 degree oven. Had a hard time finding an oven big enough and we were still pulling bits of tape from our teeth a month later...
