Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Jade and everyone,

Roger Teevan, with much ingenuity, found an email address for the 
band in which Chris Thackston, this group's founder, plays. Roger 
emailed him about our need for him to appoint a moderator. To create 
a greater sense of urgency, I emailed as well. Maybe we'll be able 
to take some control over the spam/porn/files/photos problems. Kudos 
to Roger.
