Even the first message from VG wasn't from him at all.
All  three memberships were invented Feb 21. We all know
who is doing  this. It's not funny...Not even a little bit.

dredge that up, but as I recall, the needs of  the few existing Mellotrons and 
the talent of all involved brought  about an agreeable end to the mudslinging. 
More working and restored  trons seemed to be the salve for the wound, not 
to mention a healthy  competition that brought about newly and brilliantly 
innovated  units.

today, may be the one you own in the  future.
