And one more thing -

Replace the tall switch-stand near the turntable with one of the older low ones, so that JBWX can re-take his phabulous Phraud-O-Graph at [ngdiscussion.net] and get an even more perfect one.  Of course you've got to keep everything else exactly the same — including no foamers in the background and that incredible once-in-a-lifetime sky up above . . .
