Well I AM an EE (well, I should be except for those cretins at Drexel
University that wouldn't graduate me) and I find the Audio Cyclopedia
worthless.   I had it with me last night and came away with the worst
recordings imaginable.   And I'm quite sure Brian McCarty was in the
audience, stalking me again like he did the day he came to my house and
pretended to be a phone repairman.  I can't do a proper job if people are
all watching me.   And reading this book was no help.   I couldn't get all
the mics to sound right and I started reading the book during the concert,
and it didn't get any better.   Reminds me of sixty six all over again.
