Chick Corea? Man, I'd be there to hear whatever he had to say. He's on a plane way, way, way above me.

That reminds me of a jazz conference where Arturo Sandoval was the big name in attendance. He gave a workshop/lecture and only played on his trumpet maybe a fifth of the time that he was on piano.

All the high school kids were getting bored and restless, but us older college types (even with zero piano chops like me) were completely fascinated by what he was demonstrating on the keyboard.

Once this goes non-beta, it might be a simple solution to those annoying bump issues.

Adding a bump function which can only be used once every 24 hours would clean up the threads. The mention of backing up all files makes me hesitant to wait until the final release is done.

We could still do what Bloke said and disable replies to FOR-SALE posts, so other people can't bump it themselves, though we would no longer be able to reccomend someone elses horn.

Just some brain candy.

Thanks Bloke. I hope you didn't like my post just because I agreed with you.
:twisted:
My spelling wasn't too bad considering I don't proofread.

P.S. Affect is a verb, effect is a noun. :D

I think DaTubaKid's post is one of the very finest posts I've ever read. There are a couple of unnoticeable misspellings, but they - in NO way - effect the meaning of his post.

bloke "who tries to stay away from other people's horns :shock: "

DaTubaKid was correct; affect is the homophone that should be used.

Upon reflection, the effect of this grammatical infection doesn't affect our perfectly confected defection from ineffective rules of English. In fact, FECT has defected to China: http://fect.notlong.com

Now where were we?

I've got to stop drinking diet coke on this forum.


I thought last week's Elephant explosion was hilarious. Chuck is taking the line and jumping across.

I don't understand how people can enjoy snorting Coke.
I keep getting the ice cubes hung up in my nostrils.

Well, personally, I'm not an ice kinda guy with any drink. Snorting, or otherwise.


Southern Ice Tea, is about the only thing I like with ice. Beer, diet coke, milk, orange juice, whiskey. No ice, please.
