	Hey Martin, 
	Tell us more about the condition of the Crimson trons when you
received them. The famous pictures on the web show one of the Mark
II’s (the one with the handles on the side) almost completely
destroyed. I saw Ian bash the top of that tron during Mars at the West
Palm Beach Festival in 1969. No wonder…. 
	So what did you have to do to restore them?
	Martin told me that one of them was rabid and had to be put down.
