Maybe this explains my passion for Question Mark and the Mysterians when I was a child. And since I'm working in Pine here, I can't italicize, boldface, or even underline their name. The use of the word-processor, with all its great capabilities, seems to have created new ways of showing that something is a title, but I can't seem to find any regularity in it. Here's a question for the polyglots among us - are there languages aside from Spanish that punctuate with question marks and exclamations at the beginning as well as at the end of sentences?

I just splurged on a matched quad of NOS GE 6L6GCs for my McIntosh MC30, and they're magical. I use Telefunken 12AX7s in those amps too (but I just happened to have those; they're expensive and I couldn't buy them outright). I can recommend online tube sellers if you need tubes. >where can I get the tubes tested? what happened to all those tube >testers that were on at least one end cap in every grocery store >during the 70's. Yep, it's a shame you can't find tube testers in drug stores anymore. There is a good repair shop in Austin, Circle Stereo (512-454-82770, and they're the only people I'll let touch my 40-year-old McIntosh tube amps. They're open on Saturday, and I highly recommend them. NP: June Christy, "Something Cool" on CD, through my Dynaco ST70 tube amp. Golden, magical midrange and presence. I'm tempted to buy the vinyl reissue of this gem, too. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 22 Sep 2002 14:14:19 -0700 From: Eb Subject: Feggy tv alert Tonight on the TCM channel: "The Bed Sitting Room," a 1969 Richard Lester film with Dudley Moore and Peter Cook.

I think it's a Danish board game; means "Do you remember?" But then again, I cheated and doubled checked at allmusic.com. Before then, I was thinking Norwegian. ===== "If we don't allow journalists, politicians, and every two-bit Joe Schmo with a cause to grandstand by using 9-11 as a lame rhetorical device, then the terrorists have already won." -- "Shredder" "To announce that there must be no criticism of the president or that we are to stand by the president right or wrong is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt .
