Greetings from Australia. Impressive. I haven't seen the expression "dinks" for a while. A one stage int the 80's we liked to think of ourselves as "Finks" which stood for "Five infants and no kash". Have a good time with the Forum.

I'm speachless on your 'palmares' (?) and I like the Hippie-style.
Wait till Planet10 reads the Mac-line.

Welcome Eddy.

Hi Eddy and thanks for popping in here to the introductions. I know you're not that new but still nice to say hi to those who don't know you yet.

And yes, the mac thing is a bonus. There's quite a number of us here.

I used to consider myself a ski bum ... except that I had a job.

Hell, Fast Eddy

Welcome.

Can there be any hope for analogue now??

Enjoy your time here.

I am of a mind that our universe is entirely analogue ... possibly from an exotic fractal like generator, but with the edges smoothed out by its analogue nature.

Ya can't reproduce Buddy Holly with a digital CD player of less than 24 bit resolution = too much content ...

Was the GTO rolling downhill?

I only know guys owning NOS blown GTOs with 1/4 mile rear suspension here who try to do 2.96mph.
