Not in the Lab, in the kitchen, in an oversight of mine, he ate a couple of ceramic capacitors, a piezoelectric resonator, a piece of PCB, some plastic ...

I'm home alone, when my wife returned, she would kill me !

Plan B: go to the workshop, bring another remote, when she used, I will tell as I tell my clients, I'll check on Monday.
I hope Pepe the parrot says nothing.
I do not think she notices the difference.

If you do not see me anymore around here... she noticed the difference.

The Marshall Tucker Band was from Spartanburg, SOUTH CAROLINA, not Georgia. We are currently in a running gun battle with Georgia over the fate of the Savannah river so this strikes a nerve. Regards

Good to hear your response, dvv. I go back to Doo Wop from the mid-50's as I attended teen dances, and got to dance 'close' for the first time. It still, makes me 'young', to hear a number of them. There are so many songs that I love, I would have no way of counting them. Here in the 'States', many revivals of these old groups have been made for public TV. They are just wonderful, and I put my second hi fi system on, and watch them do the songs that they first did, over 55 years ago.
One of the finest examples of GOOD video and audio capture was done in Oslo, in the late 1960's of a number of the black rock/soul groups that toured there. It was just like going back in time to re-see them. 1/2 of it was the quality of the band/performance, and 1/2 of it was the superior recording and editing of the performance. I am now convinced that Audio WITH Video is the ideal medium for ultimate enjoyment, but of course, we have thousands of songs that have no active visuals to go with them, so we have to do even MORE to re-create the 'illusion' of the original performance (if there ever was one) because using 'just our ears' is even more of a challenge to get close to the same 'original performance'. Attempting doing that is what I do for a living.

So you're admitting to just now catching up with the MTV/YouTube generations?

[john curl]

No, I like big productions that last 1 hr or more, with first class sound, or maybe B+ sound. I don't think much of YouTube, etc, except for knowledge of a group or singer.

Not that it lacks food, but he's a black hole.
I do not know whether to call the vet or Stephen Hawking.

Perhaps Steven King would be more appropriate?

I will take your word for it, yet the label says Georgia. Them, plus Charlie Daniels band. Oh well, a typo.

Anyway, the Land Of Dixie. I find that I have much more in common with Dixie than the rest of USA. An odd, yet somehow very heart warming similarity, despite the differences.
