Hey everybody! Let's flame Mark!!!! :-) I am as guilty of this as anyone, Mark, and you are right, we do go too far off topic sometimes. Why is it that people love to complain about ebay but they will not stop using or monitoring it? It's that thing you love to hate, I guess. John

Pick a subject about phonos, there's hundreds of subject lines to choose that we all could learn from. But please stop the attacks on others. And if you have a problem with eBay or it's postings, then stop visiting it or using it as a phono resource. Complain to a friend over the phone instead if you need to vent a little. But just saying hey look at this one on eBay is lousy subject matter for a list that should be dedicated to furthering our knowledge, understanding and appreciation of collecting old phonographs.
