Hey, we didn't think you were a fanatic, we just thought you were more responsible than the rest of us. Well, until Scompton came along with his 75 mpg.
I have a soft spot for the vintage stuff myself, though most of it is long gone. I'll hold that old HK A402 till I die. There's just something about it. And there's an old Thorens in the top of a closet. But the Altecs, the Advents, the KLHs, the Kenwoods and Yamahas and Polks...all gone. I hope they're getting good use somewhere.

I don't want everyone to get the wrong impression of me. I love vintage equipment and have a ton of it. This whole "green" thing is all about awareness. Once you buy in, you will find a way to lighten the load without it being a burden. I bought those new fancy fluorescent bulbs to replace incandescents throughout the house. I don't even notice the difference in the lighting any more, but I know they are doing their part for me. |
