chrisl@adkproaudio.comOn the contrary, Bill, I DO have a problem with him being an artist. I don't
like to listen to CEOs sing or watch accountants dance or look at paintings
by politicians. There are plenty of well-informed commentators on current
affairs who specialize on that, if Tim wants to make a difference he should
volunteer.
As far as John Adams, it's hard to hear his take on Hamilton and not wind
up hating the guy. Nobody, not even Thomas Jefferson, hated Hamilton more
than Adams. Hamilton was also far from a 'pawn' of bunch of nefarious bankers.
Pawn implied control by others. Hamilton was keenly aware of how finance
worked, often to a greater degree than the bankers he was dealing with, and
turned out to be right more often than not. His vision of America, as a dominant
power in the Western hemisphere built on a powerful manufacturing economy
and a strong currency backed by a central bank, was more or less right. Jefferson's
yeomen farmers reaping the fruits of their own labor and the labor of their
dark hued indentured help, while reading Gibbon in the library at night,
was winsome and romantic. Hell, even Jefferson, with his sizzling gifts and
endless energy, couldn't manage to get out of debt in his life.
Of the 'big four' Adams is probably the most likable, and the second easiest
to understand. His appetites and vices were modest, his opinions were fairly
straightforward and honest. It's good to see him getting a day in the sun,
it's richly deserved.

>>Hey Thad, Personally I would love to see more CEOs sing and accountants
dance. They might discover a higher motivation than making money. The
great thing about our nation is we ALL contribute to its political
process. I'm not a fan of "Authorities" telling us what to think. I
prefer seeing leaders coming from every walk of life.
In the case of Robbins, he is perfectly suited to give his opinion to
the NAB. They rely utterly on artists like him for their very existence
- they f/g better listen! Whether you like what today's artists say or
not, they are generally very intelligent people many of whom care a lot
more than the average Joe about changing things for the better in our
world. Maybe a slightly less jaded look at the contributions of many
artists will show you they are trying to help.
I don't claim to be a scholar of our early American history, but I gotta
think that Hamilton's intentions to create a central bank and bring the
USA into a war were not good things. Look where we are now with our
central bank, withering paper currency and wars. I loved how Adams
handled it.
My favorite Founding Father is B. Franklin, Printer. What a total f/g
genius, Renaissance Dude and towering personage he was.

About Adams. You'll rarely find an American more isolationist than I. However,
laying the blame for our current perpetually-at-war-with-someone militarism
as well as our Federal Reserve at Hamilton's door is grossly unfair. Even
if you don't like the current federal reserve, the US would have to have
SOME kind of central bank and banking regulation. And as isolationist as
I am the US would have to have SOME military to defend our borders and ensure
safe passage of goods on the seas.
Hamilton's 'strong central government' was one that could do things like
pass laws for the whole country and collect taxes on imports and exports.
Jefferson at one point argued that the state of Virginia could legislate
to ignore a federal law and if they did so anyone trying

>>Dear friends,
I just bought an Eps 16+ rack from another Ensoniq lover, also lover of Emu
(he blames Creative
to have killed both!!!). Unfortunately the Flashbank card went "k.o." as
soon as mounted it on
this unit, i had three similar problems before: I must have a serious
problem of grounding
at home..
Anyway this seniors says he knows for certain that Paris is actually a 16
bit conversion hardware,
(though if good sounding)
only the internal routing can be 24 bit: is that true????
'bye all,
Andrea, ItalyNo, paris can record and bounce 24 bit audio.
