Matt, I know it probably won't help convince your wife one way or the other, but I can tell you that my earliest childhood memories of the concept of 'magic' consist almost solely of being a toddler and seeing my dad, uncle, and aunt winding up my grandparents' old console excitedly. Seeing the previously frozen memories washing across my dad's face as the rickety machine belched forth its song made me see him (not to mention music itself) in a whole different light, and I'm sure, fundamentally changed my relationship with him as well. The lifelong love of phonographagramophonalia the image fired in me has remained one of the constant joys in my life through all fate's storms and otherwise. My greatest regret is that I don't have enough space to truly 'collect,' as it were, a number to hand down to my offspring, as you do now... There's something very psychologically sound about the development of children who a) see one or both of their parents HAPPY from time to time, and b) learn by example from their parents how much peace, security, sense of self, and sense of living a truly sacred life comes from validating one's passions out loud. That said, I sure am in need of a beat-up old Edison cylinder player, something that can play 2- and 4-minute cylinders, that is mechanically and sonically sound but not all that purty (read: functional but cheap!). Anybody? And lastly, to Matt, if I did end up buying one of your phonographs, I can promise you I'd keep it until you were ready to buy it back. Oh, and most importantly, to echo Loran, CONGRATULATIONS!
