History has a habit of showing this to be the trend. Quantum Mechanics really is a fascinating subject, and this DVD has an entertaining and interesting coverage of this and related subjects. It seems to have been put together by believers in some sort of "God" which is why I though Arny may have been interested - my posting was aimed more at him than you. Gareth.

I honestly believe that when the answers are all on the table we will find out "god" is one of the major forces, I think it is magnetizm(which also encompasses electricity/chemical bonding and such), but it could be gravity george > >

Any references are greatly appreciated. > Joe Hi Joe, There are a couple of fairly light, but informative reads that I normally recommend to the quizzical when I'm working sound. http://www.yorkville.com/downloads/other/pabasics.pdf http://www.yorkville.com/downloads/other/paguide.pdf The basics one is very basic. Layed out for someone who doesn't know anything. The PA Guide is a pretty decent primer for avoiding some fundamental setup and operation mistakes. I don't agree with some of the recommendations 100%, but to each his own. These are free and informative. Best regards, Phil Simpson.

I'll be working with a high school crew to run a variety/talent show in the spring, and these will work out very well, along with The Soundcraft Guide to Mixing. http://www.soundcraft.com/palz.asp Sometimes this basic approach is the best place to start...it's a big mistake to assume somebody already knows the fundamentals. ;-) Thanks! -John O |
