Patrick,

You're right about "not a lot of action" on my page!

A difficult work situation for the past few years has meant that I
didn't have the time or funds to put more into my pages. The best I
could do was add the (public) Message Board. I was also concerned about
security: I didn't want 'unscrupulous individuals' to discover the
physical locations of Fairlights. So I tried to avoid anything that
would lead to that.

I wanted to continue through the CMI pages (beyond Page 4) with screen
shots and summaries of functionality. Also, I created a system for
digitally transferring sounds from Series II to PC, but that project is
on hold, even though it worked very well in tests. I don't have the
resources to repair my CMI so I avoid turning it on, but those 8"
floppies won't last forever!

In any case, never mind all of that! What about the other part of my
message, excerpted here:

  I would like to provide my support for your Annual Fairlight
  Meeting. However, I am offering my location for those who
  cannot make the trip to England! We could have simultaneous
  meetings here and in England, with trans-Atlantic communication
  via phone and Internet throughout the day.

I think that it would be great to make this a global meet. Comments?
