This is OT.   I am an NMSU grad and this is news I heard today.  Paul 
Klipsch died today at age 98.   Here is more if you want to read 
about an audio pioneer.   This is an article from the Las Cruces NM 
newspaper.

He is known speaker designs, most notably the famous Klipsch Horns. 
They were large efficient speakers that were tops in the 50's, 60's 
and 70's.   Some folks loved them others did not like the horn 
designs.

Man, that's a bummer. I met Paul Klipsch once and found him to be a very fun 
and interesting person. Hearing him talk about his speaker technology (and 
other stuff!) made for a great evening.  
 
 Rest in peace,
 Andrew
