Nigel 63 is young from where I am standing. At 63 I had the world in my hands; nothing was too much for me. If I wanted it I did it and it turned out fine.

“You are one of the younger. Any old men could possibly be this opinionated (About any and everything)”

I heard said that when you grow old you have learned so much but have no one to tell it to; that makes this forum a nice place to be. I have learned much from this forum. In the last 12 years I had the opportunity to mentored well over 150 men at my church – they thanked me for my wisdom.

The forums I visited that deal strictly with their brand instrument I find boring. SynthZone is much more than an instrument.’ It’s people and the instruments. I have made many friends over the years; Peter who lives in England called me twice this year. He came to the Technics jam years ago.

Most old men talk a lot because a greater part of their energy and drive has left them. Part of the design of life.
I’m on my soap box again.

Thank you Nigel for everything, John C.
