Vern,

I, for one, welcome your (and OGD's) inclination and ability to break 
down some of these issues to their finer points. This being an 
ELECTRONIC drums site, any number of issues from the world of 
computing, intellectual property, etc. become relevant. We 
grasshoppers all have much to learn about many things, and this site 
gives us a good chance to do it. The group as a whole has a great 
ability to change directions as need be.

Being rather simple-minded, I thought that Pedro was asking a simple 
question. Only by reading your answer did I realize that much more 
could be said. 

Forgive me for indulging in backslapping; I'm only going to say this 
once (actually, I might say it again). When I asked you and OGD to 
join me as moderators on this board 25 years ago, I had more than a 
sneaky suspicion about how well that might work out. This place has 
definitely become a class act. I've been reading a lot of self-
congratulatory posts elsewhere, and I'm just shallow enough to want 
to blow our horn, too.

In case anyone is reading this, the shirt that Vern is so determined 
to protect is one of the DTXpress/DTXpression t-shirts that I had 
made for the moderators and planned to offer to other members who 
wanted them. But, like almost every other product in the world of e-
drumming, the t-shirts face some legal obstacles.
