a-ha.  that was the one detail that left me a little curious. the
solution is not as simple as i thought. in that way, it almost seems
that these modules will require their own power supply, i.e. possibly
wall wart solution, in order to make it easy on users.

i'm personally interested in trying "modular mods" for posterity,
though.  if it comes to doing the extra work or using a wall wart, i
will do the work.

i'm curious to see how this pans out.  i think there is a solution
that will make users and designers happy and hope that eric sees this
project through, not discouraged by logistics.  having tube modules in
my system is really exciting.
