G'day Ralf,

Thanks for setting me straight. I've been making the same mistakes for
over 20 years and now I know why everyone I've recorded (including
myself) has sounded like crap.

I've learned the error of my ways and won't make the same mistake again
(posting on this list). I'll now go back to lurking and watch you
continue to tell everyone else who dares post on the list that they are
wrong too.

*moron*

Brad.
