Ok, now it's time to tell us who you are and where you live. I am Frank 
Stickle and I live in Virginia.
 
So do you own a Mellotron? Would you like to own one? Some people think 
samples are great. To me they have their place, but it would be kind of like 
riding around on a Suzuki with big stereo speakers blasting out the sound of a 
Harley motor and telling everyone you come across that it's just as good as a 
real Harley.
 
How's that for an analogy? Thank you! Thank you very much Ladies and 
Gentleman!

          Pretty much everyone here loved Woolly. He was well known to 
          all of us, known well by some of us and the best friend to one of 
          us.
           
          He will be missed.
           
          Welcome to the group.
