But did you know we all suffer from Daylight savings because of the German military?

Modern day DST actually causes several percent spike in energy usage, yet out of habit we continue to bow to German "ingenuity"
It was proposed by New Zealander George Vernon Hudson:
Hudson is credited with proposing modern-day daylight saving time. His shift-work job gave him leisure time to collect insects, and led him to value after-hours daylight. In 1895, he presented a paper to the Wellington Philosophical Society.

:) not race, nationality. We didn't have to follow, nor we have to use the imperial standards system, yet somehow we still do

Brought the Kef's to school and ordered 100ft of speaker wire to get them set up where I want them. Now all I need to do is keep kids from touching them. The center is still home with me. Perhaps I'll swap out the center in the living room for it and see how it fairs matched with the Phils.

And... that's another country's fault too?:)
Wouldn't these two issues be the choice / fault of the country using them. Instead of the county that 'first' used them?

Got the shipping notification for the Testarossa kit. RAAL 70-20XR, dual SB Satori woofers, a 10" SB PR, and I'm pretty sure the plans for the ML-TL are coming as well.

If the NaO Note II RS are any indicator, this build should be finished around 2047. I'm pretty pumped to hear them after I retire :D

Hmm, that's fun. Delivery estimate is tomorrow. Toying with the idea of using 1/4" aluminum plate as part of the baffle.

Don't act like you never heard of German Mind Control. We know you use it on Marie.

No. It's just some lady holding a cat.
Did you move them around and make a collage?
I tried, but got distracted by the boob and "kitty cat" and something reminiscent of meatspin dot com.
