Why is enough never enough?  The only folks who've complained about
volume of email on this list probably don't have good email
programs.  The are also the most likely to have inadequate news
reader software as well.

I'm more into _using_ the stuff and _making_ music with it.  Still
I certainly don't mind scanning something about someone's opinion
on some artist.  The recent discussions of ELP brought back many
memories for instance.

This was a fine little newsletter.  Should just leave it be.  Go on
the net and we'll have folks posting all the time about "organ
patch patch wanted for Kawaii NNNN" and "Farfisa parts needed" and
"XXXX for sale" (crossposted to all music groups).

It's been a nice little community here.  I'll vote no and hang here
til Mark pulls the plug.

P.S. This will be the most traffic the poor little mailing list
has ever seen probably :)
