No matter how many mailing lists I get on, you always tell me things I would never know about. I really do not know how you this. But I do wish you could give me more notice of all these things.

RE: the Simon and Garfunkle show on tv. I was 14 when I first heard them. I haven't heard them singing together in years. So part of this takes me back. But part of it is all inside-music geeky with things I never knew then. It really is good!!! If somebody reading this misses the early showing, it's on again at 9:00 PM. - Cindy
