Doepfer

I use the web interface instead of email, and keep a separate 
browser window open with the Doepfer module list displayed :-)

Seriously, I used to try to be concientious about referring to both 
function and number, like "A150 VC Switch", or even just function, 
like "multiple", but sometimes it seems like too much verbage, or I 
just get too lazy, and just type something like "A170". Wildly 
inconsistent, I know. 

I guess I'll go back to typing things like "A150 VC Switch patched to 
the A185 bus access module".
