I apologize to those trying to reach me. I have a new number, and I have not been checking my PM's. I have been in CT for about a month. I just got back today. I will get in touch with everyone within a few days. My hands and head are real full right now.
Thanks for the prayers, and calls from some real true friends here.
Ben

    Welcome back to the rat race Ben.
    "Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.

    Maybe its time to pay for internet access ;) DSL starts at $19.99/mo and no phone line is needed.

    From the ATT/Bellsouth website:
    "DSL Direct 768K" If you would like FastAccess DSL Direct 768K for $19.95, call 1-866-949-0023 to order!
