I did not mean to slight any automotive marques, as this isn't the forum for that sort of thing. in fact a Dugan automixer is probably the equivalent of the Mercedes. I did mean to slight Peavey.
I'm pretty sure that's a mutual feeling.
I have learned an awful lot from JR over the years, and he posts out of the goodness of his heart (and perhaps a little of his insanity in continuing to participate on forums with the vigor he still does). He's not even in the SR business directly at the moment, and so can't be accused of whatever nonsense you claim of "self-interested contractors".
You - I've learned only one thing - where the "ignore user" button is. I haven't pushed it yet in your case due to a desire to help counterbalance your nonsense and agenda.
Feel free to continue to go down the list insulting the most valuable members of this forum. It's affecting your credibility a lot more than theirs.
