Thanks for the great account, another earth. I am sure much of what you wrote just came out because it is still all so vivid in your memory. Congrats!

btw, i've been to buffalo ... it wasn't a 100 years ago, but probably 15+. went to Bob's or Bill's or something like that record store, I swear it was simply the first floor of a house . . . picked up an album there that I had been trying to find for YEARS. The guy at the counter said, "that's funny. We've been trying to get rid of it for years."
good memories.
