I bet they could fill the largest auditorium in town for that event! The best I can hope for is that somebody captures it on well-produced video.

Does anybody know if those lines:

"The world around us is a symphony of vibrations. From temperature, light, sound and a host of other physical quantities, we live in a world of continuously varying signals. Capturing these signals and making them do amazing things is the domain of the analog circuit designer."

are quoted from another source? I know a couple places where it would be a VERY appropriate lead-in quote. For those of us who have (supposedly) had our brains rotted by too much rock-and-roll music, it certainly evokes lines by Graeme Edge from "In Search of the Lost Chord":

"This garden universe vibrates complete,
Some, we get a sound so sweet.
Vibrations, reach on up to become light,
And then through gamma, out of sight.
Between the eyes and ears there lie,
The sounds of color and the light of a sigh."

p.s. - Dang it, now I'm gonna be up all night listening to 40-year old popular music!

When it happened back a few months ago, it didn't take very much imagining to give me a real spooky, creepy feeling!

Does anybody know if there was an official statement about Bob's cause of death?
