    Hyfi and Peabody aren't the same guy.

    Yech isn't human and, therefore, doesn't count.

    I miss DarrenH, Mike, and Demetrio.

    You sure?

    And as for you other imposters, you weren't on the mailing list. Get it together, men!

    Bernd sent me several 12AX7 tubes. They were all singles to be used in my Bellari phono preamp which requires only one tube. I still use the Ei gold pin. He was/is a perfect gentleman (as noted by Feanor). I remember that recipe too.

    Oh, I have old private messages from Lensman and Resident Loser (and the banned one markw).

    WTF is a Tarte au citron? A lemon tart with vodka or something? I'm not a big dessert fan. I'd rather more booze...as you well know.
    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.

    In fact, how do I know that YOU aren't a woman?

    I'm sure. I don't have half the audio system he has, but if I did, I might be him.

    Mr Peabody's partial actual name is Bryan with a "Y", Hyfi is Brian with an "I". Mr Peabody's partial emial contains "hifi" with an "I" and Hyfi is Hyfi with a "Y". LOL How is that for confusion?

    Hyfi's email does not contain any of it.

    I have partially retired that moniker as I join new forums as Shadowfax. I hate that I picked Hyfi in the first place, but it was out of desperation while trying to create an account and everything I picked said it was already taken.

    Wait, that didn't come out right! Hey, I have some compilation mailing lists too, did a sort against yours and this is what happened ...

    Red Red Meat - There's a Star Above the Manger Tonight
    Bowery Electric - Beat
    American Analog Set - The Golden Band
    Songs: Ohia - Axxes and Ace
    Palace Music - Viva Last Blues
    Geraldine Fibbers - Lost Somewhere Between the Earth and My Home
    Sparklehorse - Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot
    Edith Frost - Calling Over Time
    Jim O'Rourke - Eureka
    Wheat - Hope and Adams
    Portishead - Dummy
    Silver Jews - American Water
    Olivia Tremor Control - Dusk at Cubist Castle
    Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One
    Stereolab - Emperor Tomato Ketchup
    Built to Spill - Perfect From Now On
    PJ Harvey - Dry
    Tricky - Maxinquaye
    Richard Buckner - Devotion + Doubt
    Laika - Silver Apples of The Moon

    Oops, that's not right either, that's a best of the 90s list, and a damn good one too, let me try that again, here's a few that don't show on your comp list, though hard to compare since your list isn't even sorted, and some of them may be alternates, hard to keep track over the years ...

    aewingnut
    Beatlebob

    Heard from Rae recently, he's in the 2015 comp. cc posts some over at SHTV, Mike already stopped by, I sent out a bunch of PMs when I made that comp post, but not too much back. Still, getting close to reality, might almost have enough songs, have to check, maybe let it go on for another month.
