| Should you use cleaner on your stylus? I use the Paul and Doug World Famous MCME stylus brush, followed by soft artist's brush and/or the Onzow ZeroDust. I insert and glue a small, flat plastic handle into the MCME, making it easier to use. I include one with every order of the AI stuf... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone That's great news about getting a cartridge and a personal note from John Grado, Pat. He's really a very decent man: generous, kind and helpful. He donated one of his more expensive pairs of headphones when the Audiogoners got together, last summe... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Bin ... that was indeed beautiful. Thank you for sharing your feelings with us. When my mom was dying, she urged my dad to re-marry. In fact, she named some women she thought would be good for my dad ... and 1 year after my mom died, my dad marrie... | |

My purpose is to show newbies (and perhaps some not-so-newbies) that very effective homemade RCMs can be m... | |

Hey Bob (Jyprez), talk about serendipitous timing ... at the urging of Arnie Goodman (proprietor of Blue Storm Music -- check out his website www.bluestormmusic.com for outrageously good prices), just this past week I sent Mr. Fremer large samples... | |
| DIY stylus-cleaning magic long Here's a further tweak for Doug's excellent tweak. The brush can easily rotate while in your hand, especially if you're using a round toothpick. I thought a more solid handle would be good. I picked up a couple coffee stirrers at McDonalds. It has... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Oh well. Hair today, gone tomorrow. While you deny it, I do think your decision to forego the chemo is a brave decision, as well as a wise one. As we discussed, 150 good days is better than 300 bad ones, and that first course of chemo certainly ca... | |
