I blame Pa for:
1) Setting me on this long, educational and fascinating road of DIY. Many years ago a friend ordered boards for an F5. Being a clueless wee lad back then, I chortled at the "puny" power output, but I was curious, so agreed to help build the thing. We were both solder neophytes, yet somehow managed to avoid starting any fires. And the rest, as they say, is history 😀
2) Having a work space that started as a corner of a desk, then sequestered the entire desk, and now most of a room has been colonised and covered with countless gubbins, growing like some sort of biotechnological fungus
3) Developing the valuable skill of justifying to my girlfriend why each new amp / speaker / headphone acquisition is, like, really important
4) Years and years and years of absolute enjoyment and satisfaction

I had settled into my chronic pain alienation, made up of days all the same, no longer a purpose, and without any enthusiasm. Family events had worsened the situation and I no longer had any desire to put myself out there and devote myself to something constructive.
Then, as if by chance, after years without connecting to the Forum, I found myself in these pages and see such a beautiful community animated by a strong desire to share ideas, projects and encourage to "take the step" to do something beautiful and in a different way (talking about Pa's FW and DIY projects, I'd say elegant and exploring new territories)... and a spring in me was triggered again: the zest of life was flowing there!
I blame you Pa for this 😀 😀
And I obviously blame you too, ZM!!
Let the sunshine in and the seriousness out 😉

I blame Pa for making me sweat while listening to music during the summer time... 
Then I end up drinking more pilsners or lagers or white ales to cool off...
Oh wait, I like drinking those... never mind. 😀

I blame Pa for putting the link to this site on the Pass Labs web site just about 21 years ago. That has resulted in me having waaaay more amplifiers than I have speakers.
I suppose I can solve that problem by building more speakers 😀
