Yo, Rex, I was delighted to see a letter by you in my 1994 Issue of Eightball Comic, #16. Hilarious and bizarre coincidence. I didn’t learn I’d you until 2000 or so, yet I DID already “know of you “. Led me to your interview of Terry and Dan. Awesome stuff, dude. You awright!

On or off, up or down, slow or fast. Pretty simple, isn't it?
  2:24pm
P-90:

@Hubig: that’s an interesting line of inquiry. One of those dials is marked “Up/Down”, another is “On/Off.” They are rotary dials apparently marked in increments of 10. Which seems to invite the (metaphysical?) questions: can one by 20% “On” and 80% “Off”? Or 70% “Up” and 30% “Down”?
