Mr. Pass, do you have a wishlist?

[ssmith]

I'm the process of putting together an Aleph. It's huge fun, and at the end of it I may end up with killer amps (presuming I don't mess anything up) -- all thanks to the very generous spirit of Mr. Pass who goes through the financial and legal hassle of designing things, patenting them, and then helping people copy them. So I could end up with great equipment without ever having paid a cent to Nelson, which kind of bothers me.
It's like Nelson has given a gift, and I may wish to reciprocate -- so would it not be an idea for him to start a little 'wishlist' somewhere (like you can do on the amazon site), where people could have the option of spending the equivalent of 2 mosfets, so that Nelson occasionally gets a surprise package in the post now and again containing that CD he's always been curious about listening to but never got around to ordering?

Just a thought, and sorry in advance if this old ground that has already been gone over.

In the reality your statments sound a little strange and if you put it like this i think that the sense of this forum looses a little bit of its sense.
Nevertheless i understand the good spirit of your post and i do agree with you!
Nelson is a very generous person.
He always takes the time to reply everybody that asks for his advice; he helps people with troubleshouting problems and moreover he shares with us his marvelous projects.


I think this is a nice idea ...even thought ....ehehe....i think he has possibility to buy whatever he likes.....ehehe......but.....is it not the gest that counts?and so.....let's see how the forum respondes at this thing.

Anyways.....if it wasn't still clear......i'll be glad to take part of it!

I am afraid that is hard to DIY, though.

I think DIY is the only way to do it.
