There's Dartmouth, MA and Falmouth, MA. Then there's what appeared on a Cape Cod weather report: Someone's got a Fal Mouth indeed.

Kevin is now working on a new amp that uses 2 car batteries and a coat hanger as the load

Indeed. https://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/bombshell-hedy-lamarr-story-documentary/9906/ https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cocktail-party-physics/hop-skip-and-a-jump-remembering-hedy-lamar/

Hedy Lamarr. Apart from being drop dead gorgeous she co-invented spread spectrum communication as a secure communication method as WW2 was getting going.

Just a quick check and Vitron IS food safe.

I found a Grado HP-2 and now I wonder if anyone would want an updated SHA-1 😄 but also, could it be considered an update if it DID NOT use the tube filament as a load??

The Kills - Midnight Boom

Kevin has the correct idea IMO. I used to have to deal with o-ring issues, frequently on a system designed to support consistent nitrous flow from the bottle with either CO2 or O2...the o-rings would eventually deteriorate. Learned a few things...scuba shops and paintball shops are pros. They carry a compound that when applied it makes the rubber swell and often will be a fix if you do not have a replacement o-ring. A kit like the one attached (note the viton material handles temp swings and harsh liquids like race fuel well) I found to be well worth the money. Best of luck, Jacob! Sam EDIT: PS...I would be more than happy to send any that might work for you.

Can confirm deliciousness. Claire also baked a ginger cake in Doug's very cool Everhot oven.

Or it is time for the HC Breville Mafia to kick in to action.

I would not have put you down as fan of Scary Spice, but your secret is safe with us.

From a couple of weeks ago - breakfast for some distinguished guests who were staying with us. Out of season plums and frozen peaches are both delicious when baked.

I guess this was before cultural appropriation was a thing?

There was a tweet, and then this happened. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/10/world/europe/gary-lineker-tweet-match-of-the-day.html summary:

My Revox PR99 playing an STS tape.

Breville no longer services my model, so let’s hope it’s the tank.

Qobuz just added this (192 kHz), so I listened to it last night while cooking. May listen again soon. I forgot how good it was. Edit: oops, pic added.

Too soon?

It's a bit amazing how people like this are like leaches on the industry. I did a little bit of digging and yeah... found this: https://www.startengine.com/offering/danclark So sites like these are iffy to say the least and a good way to be utterly fucked as the investor and why would any legitimate company go down this route. There is Bluto himself singing his praises...
