Bon aniversaire et Joyeux Noël, Guillaume.

Happy Birthday, Ric. Have a great one!

Merry Christmas (even though it's still an hour away here) and Happy Holidays to all!

Thanks everybody. I had a nice, low-key day. I really love the HC community and all of you, so here's a toast to HeadCase and all the great people here. Cheers.

Be sure to leave them in shock and awe! Good luck.

Hang on. Where's the marmite?

At least one! I must not be getting enough arsenic or my skin would clear up.

Condolences to you and your family, Mike.

No problem either way. Give me a call if you have a break. Either way, have a great time.

Spending Xmas in Lompoc? If you'd like to get together to do some local wine and/or beer tasting, let me know. If you don't want to come to Santa Barbara, we could meet in Santa Ynez or Los Olivos?

I toasted with some Rittenhouse 25. Peace and comfort to you and your family, Mike. I also didn't realize that Harry Morgan died this year. I toasted him too. What a great and long career he had.

Sorry Mike. Wishing peace and calm to you and your family. Wayne, maybe you should post a reward for the return of your stuff. That would make it worth the effort to return the not very useful (to non-Santas) stuff.

I agree, but it's no worse than your "apologists" comment. I think that you need to get some of your facts straight. Kevin doesn't produce or sell amps or designs. I haven't counted, but I would bet that Kevin has put more designs in the public domain (i.e. free) that Alex has. This is not to denigrate Alex, it's just so you understand what Kevin is about and what he does.

Happy Birthday!

Easy. Darth Beyers!

She probably thought that you were thinking about later and took it as a compliment. Ditto!

Isn't arguing about comparative SQs a waste of time? It's something that is totally subjective. Nobody can be right or wrong in their choice, they like what they like.

Need a new thread. Currawong has locked that one. It deserved locking too. Edit: Oops, too late.

Not if Mike talks in his sleep, heh.

How about Pirovitch?

Sleep well, Mike. And dream of buried treasure!

Then you might want address those people by name. What are you trying to accomplish? I honestly can not tell from your posts. If it's just to show your indignation, you have succeeded, though poorly. Passive-aggressiveness rarely achieves ones goal. If it's something else, I suggest you try a direct approach. I understand. However, without the evidence, the claims have no value and won't stop the shilling and backhand deals. Start again when you and the others are willing to present the evidence.

Why be passive-aggressive? Just ask him nicely and directly to provide evidence. Otherwise ask him to not make claims until he is willing to provide such evidence. Birgir, just a word of advice. I also suggest that you withhold making any claims about misbehavior regarding Cavalli until you are willing to back them up with evidence. It sounds like the evidence is coming soon, so just wait until them to say anything else.

Happy Birthday!
