    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Good luck Doug and get out of there as soon as possible. The damn place is full of sick people!

    Going into the body and fender shop is bad enough, having to go in through the E entrance just makes it worse.

    Best wishes for a full recovery. Do WE know if the surgery has "already" occurred and what kind of surgery we're talking about because the implication is that this is extremely serious? Reminds me of the thread on Russ's heart surgery. Is that what we're dealing with here, because let's face it boys, we're not getting any younger. And we're going to be seeing a LOT more of this in the future!

    I left him a VM last night, and attempted to call him tonight but went to voicemail. The original thread I got this info from shows no sign of any updates.

    As soon as I find anything out I will post an update here.

    Hi Guys. Thank you for all the well wishes and prayers. Early Sunday morning I had blood clots in my pee, and it got blocked up, and could not go. To make a long story short I'm back home now after a procedure where they cauterized a lesion in my bladder and did a biopsy. Should know on the 24th if it's cancer or just a lesion from the radiation therapy. Right now I'm recovering, and will need a few days to get back to normal. Thanks again for the prayers guys :)
    Best Regards,
    Doug
