Site launches a barrage of pop-ads, attempts to reset your home page, 
and who knows what else.  There is no content underneath it.

Very annoying and this is the 3rd group I belong to it has appeared 
on the last 24 hours.  Sender joined this group yesterday.

But while I'm breaking silence, anyojne near San Mateo, CA qualified 
to fix the KS portion of a Synthi AKS?  I have one that will only 
record if I apply pressure at one point of the circuit board 
lightly.  I thought I had found and fixed the bad solder but then it 
reappeared.  My other KS plays fine except the bottom octave plays in 
reverse note order.  By that I mean that if you play a descending 
scale (sequenced or live) down the touchpad, the last 8 or 12 
semitones ascend.  Not only that - they are in tune with the rest of 
the keyboard.  This is actually an interesting way to generate new 
ways of thinking of patterns but I would like to get it repaired 
someday.

Thanks.
