  1. Thanks to all of you for your advice. I've been reading about Clemastine. It's an antihistamine that was used in allergy medicines like Tavist and Dahist. A study was done a few years ago at the University of California in which the use of this allergy medicine was shown to reverse the demyelination process in nerves of  the brain. What's "funny" is,  shortly after this was discovered,  that particular form of antihistamine was no longer manufactured or sold in the US. That tells me that these people were on the right track, and when the Big Pharm/FDA found out about it, they put a clamp down on it. It's so much more lucrative to keep treating sick people than it is to cure them. You can still get Clemastine  in the UK. I found a site that sells it. I intend to at least try it. The only side effect is possible drowsiness, so why not??? I'll speak to her neurologist, of course. I can't promise I'm going to listen if she tells me no, though.  

  2. Yesterday my wife was diagnosed with MS. Would appreciate any advice from anyone who has any insight to possible treatments to delay the progression. She's only 40, and has a long life ahead of her. I don't want her to spend it in a wheelchair if I can help it. Thanks to all.

  3. I have an Audient iD22 that survived a lightning strike that caused a surge that blew out my power conditioner, refrigerator, and furnace. I wouldn't let this one incident cause you to write them off. The Audient interface is versatile and it sounds pristine. I love the sound of the preamps, and the sound of my bass through the DI is awesome.

    That may also explain why I tipped every street musician we passed. Even the guy banging on a plastic bucket. 

     

    There's a street musician in my area that plays a five gallon bucket with drumsticks. He's friggin amazing to watch. He gets so many sounds out of that thing...

    Is it one of them pictures where different people see different things then? When I look Ringo isn't holding a guitar.

    Same - Ringo is the one with the mustache unless I'm mistaken. Wasn't trying to be sarcastic at all.

    I only had two 8-track tapes.  Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and Heart's Dreamboat Annie.  Right in the middle of, arguably, the most popular Heart song, Crazy On You, the song fades out, you hear it click to the next track, and then the song fades back in!  Are you kidding me??!  Doh-headslap.gif

    Yep. Two program changes that come to mind for me were during Ladies Room on Kiss's Rock and Roll Over, and 2112 on Rush's All the World's a Stage.
