    The reason black paint hasn't come up is obvious. Just like differences between cables, amps and source components, it doesn't exist. Anything else is just placebo effect.

    And yet.....You did

    How -- Schroedingerian -- or is it Jungian in a synchronicity-esque way?

    The mind boggles.


    speaking of Ice (err, umm, non-Vanilla Ice)... it was, like, 90 degrees (F) here today. Hottest days of this summer are happening after the Equinox... what's up with that?

    :/

    "Pokemon Equinox".
    An anagram for that shows...."Ken Equip Moon Ox".

    Hmmm. Is there some sort of ritualistic shenanigans going on at Polk HQ ?

    Well your day is 1/2 done. Time to start thinking about what to eat for dinner at MCL around 4:00

    Don't know what MCL is aside from the ligament. If it's the bakery in Indy, then i REALLY don't know what MCL is.

    I usually eat dinner around 730-8pm.

    You dont know me.....you don't know me.....!!!

    Shat up! :D

    I don't know...took an Aleve. We'll see if the headache goes away soon.
    Then all bets are off!

    Don't sell 'em short -- they're high achievers. ;)

    In seriousness, that's cool. We certainly kept this thread up near the top of new posts (ahem).
