Well, for those of you who don't like me, and I don't know who you are,
if you're just Bruce or if you're everyone, read this that Bruce Dumes
wrote me and understand why I think I shall give Bruce what he wants and
leave this bulletin board. Be sure and read the end where Bruce says "If
I wanted to flame you, you would've felt the heat. I really don't give a
shit what you think about me. You have a lot of nerve saying I pretend
like I know everything...." Well, Bruce, you got what you want. I would
appreciate if no-one would write to me on this Analog Beatles subject
again. Thank you.

In article <4eOpB8W00awQQ18V0J@andrew.cmu.edu> you write:
>Jesus Christ, you'd think Bruce worked for EMI or something. I never
>said I had done any research on the subject....I was offering my own
>views, and so I don't appreciate your "you haven't done enough research
>on this subject to be making these kind of statements". I didn't claim
>to have done any.

You present your opinions as fact. 


>	Yes, I realise that the "real" version of Sgt. Pepper's IS the mono
>version. But the stereo version is the widely released one and the one
>most people are familiar with.

So what?

>	I realise the early recordings were two-track. That IS stereo...are you
>saying that "Dear Prudence", which is eight-track, is TRUE stereo? Of
>course not....it's multi-track recording. 

Two track is NOT stereo.  It's multi-track recording with two tracks only.

>	Lastly, I would quite like to hear one of the early UK singles on

Agreed here.

I was being pretty nice.  If I wanted to flame you, you would've felt the
heat.  I really don't give a shit what you think about me.  You have a lot
of nerve saying I pretend like I know everything considering the 
tone you took in your post.  You ought to go back and re-read your statements.
