Thanks for the reply.
I was first introduced to FST in about '71 while at college and it was a
great cult following. While on vacation in Maine a few years back, I was
chatting with the manager of the Inn we were staying at. She, at one point
was kidding about and said, "shoes for industry." Now the conversation to
this point had nothing to do with FST, but I replied, "don't give up your
shoes." We both laughed at the implausible meeting of two fans in the
wilds
of Maine. My wife of 30 years didn't know what the heck we were talking
about and simply assumed that we were both completely bonkers.

which is

| that's show biz. Visit http://www.rhino.com
to buy the Firesign's
