Andy, you'll have to trust Frank on this one cause he's reeeaaalllly, really 
old and also probably witnessed Edison screwing in his first light bulb. Also, 
he once wrote a book about Mellotrons although I think he mighta been too 
cheap to put color photos in it.

and steal Frank Samagaio's Mark II before it gets to the East Coast)

I believe him! I believe him! Just seems a weird thing, to do, that's all. :-)
