haha - found a 2014 copy of Bounder magazine, feat. John Thompson discussing the return of vinyl, wondering if it will last -- it's here!

Thanks Ian Tamblyn for the story about ravens coming to the cave. It was as if they knew you were there to hear them, and wanted to give you their voices for your music. Nature is intelligent!

John Thompson (a different one)
Love hearing about your shop and ventures! I moved to Ottawa (Hintonburg) in 1990 and have spent much time in your shop. I enjoyed the Ian Tamblyn interview as well. I've seen him in concert at least 3 times, starting with one with him and Terry Tufts shortly after I moved here.

Thanks for your comments, Mary-Sue and John -- I'll pass along them along to Ian.

Chris, during Funding Drive you mentioned your brother Romney. There's probably not a lot of Romney White's in this world, did he run an IBM VM/CMS consulting company called *ddessa (schwa was the first letter) back in the 1980's? If so I knew him then. I was at BNR.
