I understand your point but, with all due respect, putting things in a pile at an estate sale and walking away from them, does not mean they now belong to you. Your solution makes more sense.
Thinking about it, why would you criticize someone who is sympathetic to someones situation? Guess you have nothing better to do.

Your sympathy towards someone else's situation is admirable. My comment was not criticism, just an observation. As to having nothing better to do, I will certainly find better things to do the next time I consider giving you advice on your Orthophonic reproducer projects. You'll see that I patiently tried on several occasions to do just that. (You're welcome by the way.) Be careful not to puncture your thin skin the next time you change a needle.

I think it would be nice if we only gave advice or opinions on the original topic. Tom B :twisted: :twisted:

I just received some contact information for the guy who was last seen with my modernolette... I sent him an email yesterday but have not yet heard back. I have his full name now as well, so if anyone believes they might know him and wouldn't mind forwarding a message about this situation, send me a message or email and I'll confirm his full name.
