My dear Lee,
On behalf of Ed and James Jorden, my mentor, and myself..i thnk
you sincerely.
We really do not "get grief" here..because we rise above the level...We
are aware that the reputation of RMO is well-known..and there use to be
a lot of people here who did not dissolve into the
snakepit....Personally, i just use this as a mere diversion..since i
have such nice things to do..especially trying to spread my love for
music to nice people..older and younger...
The number of "hits' on both our podcasts and our Youtube videos is
amazing....Just in a few hours, I already see a large number of
downloads on some of my videos..Ed and I have huge collections..and we
love to spread them around....for our love and our passion...and we do
not give a fig (or a better word) if anyone is jealous.
Many tahanks...Charlie
