It is still available, and I have pictures. I have had a couple of nibbles but no bites yet.

Gotcha. Nonetheless, I got one over the summer, and this is a good price. Could you sell this say, four months ago. Thanks .... It's a good price and I'm sure someone will snap it up.

SOLD .... to Sergio Lara. It will have a good home.

Serge called me from Mexico City, and I can say it was a privilege to speak with him. He is a gentleman and a genuine nice guy as well as an accomplished musician.

I think it's Artist depth (shallower than mid depth). But you are still "the man".

Actually the old artist depth and the new mid depth are supposed to be the same (not that they are) In 84 the super shallow had just come out in the elite configuration in the C-Series and was the round hole 83 C-Series. I don't think it made it to the legends and others till after that, 85 or 86 maybe.

Mea culpa.... I don't know why I said it has a deep bowl. It doesn't.

Is 'mea culpa' Latin for 'my bad'? :D

For some reason, that comment reminded me of Dave Sim's 'Tangents' piece.

I think I need to go steel wool my brain now.

For some strange pre-caffeine baseline level reason, I am reminded of the question: If a man speaks in a forest and no woman is there to hear him, is he still wrong?
