Re: [wiardgroup] Designs too simple for Blue Modules

Hi Group,

My apologies. yes the message was intended to be sent to grant directly. i
saw his asap.net address in the "reply-to" field so i just replied, which of
course, as we all know, sent the message to the group somehow.
i don't use an anonymous re-mailer. just outlook express. i don't know what
the prob is.
...and once again, paul, since you are admittedly touchy, i really wasn't
trying to pick on you. i apologize. you do what you do well. i just think
you focus on different things than someone like grant does. well, it would
appear that way to me anyhow. it seems to me by your
product-line/literature/personal comments that you are interested in taking
more traditional time-tested concepts and improving their
quality/stability...whereas i feel that grant is maybe more interested in
taking existing technology and seeing just what sort of mayhem one might be
able to conjure by re-combining it and mixing/matching/swapping/woggling it
to maybe jog the musician's imagination a little more. perhaps even
discovering something new. those particular qualities happen to be more
interesting to me. i realize others don't feel the same.
i almost deleted the offending comment from my email (which i thought, at
the time, was only going to grant) before i sent it, since i'm aware he
doesn't particularly enjoy the synthmaker vs. synthmaker B.S., but i just
had to leave it in because i thought my "rhymes with Paul Schreiber" joke
was absolutely priceless (...no one would pay a dime for it.), but you know
that's me...

-Jack
