Great and are you going to sign it in the right place this time?
Ah just got it. Thanks, You did sign it properly this time!
BTY way too much money! You might actually get folks who know what they are doing for those rates.

Mr Simon,
not sure if the LA works are html compatible.
(you're familiar with the wisdom words of Matthew and Curl on pearls ?)

I don't quite follow you.
My comment is Jan pays the authors too much, many would do it for free, and some egos such as mine are large enough I would pay to be published but in that case I want to negotiate star billing. Of course I don't have to pay to get published as others don't seem to be willing to produce technical articles.

And here my vested interest is making sure the publication continues!
All I know is that when I'm headed back to Round Rock from my NRA meeting with my two toddlers (makes me upset that they still don't know how to handle a shotgun - but that's off topic), when I pass by SY's house the girls are just pouring out of the house.. and the loud music! Holy cow!! Well, end of rant...he just keeps bragging about those big bucks he makes as a contributor to LA!
(fyi - tongue firmly planted in cheek on the above!)

Yeah - he makes more from it than I do; I'm just trying to mop up the red ink 😡

Jan, I feel your pain in those contract negotiations. It was so apparent when SY talks about pizza and his San Marzano tomatoes and tipo fino flour. San Marzanos?!? Who can afford them? Ouch!! (I've been sooo tempted to steal a few)
Happily I see my order is now being processed. Keep them coming, please! (that's no joke!)

You've had my pizza. The San Marzanos are worth it.
(Actually, they're not too horribly expensive at HEB)

😀 hehehe... he's right...they ARE worth it! I tease SY on the forum, he is ever so gracious and I've eaten at his home on many occasions. I count myself quite lucky. 🙂

when SY talks
You forgot the numerous references to limo chaperone services and snow covered mirrors.
(what i'd really be interested in is the achieved/estimated copy number of Vol 0 and/or 1)
Hi Jan,
I just noticed there's #1 already available - congrats! Of course it's already ordered.
Thanks! Hannes

OK Jan,
You shamed me into actually paying for a copy! Of course I took the DIY discount.
You do know I am so cheap that I not only use one sheet of the free paper locally called the Pennysaver in the morning, but I let it dry and fold it over to use the other side the next day!

Jan,
We need to talk about order numbers! You may wish to change to alphanumerics unless you want anyone to be able to figure out your circulation is about 1/2 of ....

Cool! Between the dry gulches here and rattlesnakes, I should see mine in about 6 months or so being as I live on the fringes here in Texas. It's a long wayyy to the mail station in Austin.😉
Very interesting. Good stuff on feedback; can we now insist that there are three amounts of feedback: none, insufficient and enough? (N.B. some designers call insufficient "modest").
Also interesting measurements on resistors and capacitors. Will Doug Self be designing a capacitor/cable burn-in device for volume 2?

Yes. I must say, I am pretty proud of the crisp, sharp, AP plots in Ed's article.
I now probably know more about book design and layout than audio ....
