The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Understood, and nothing untoward intended Steve! Despite his unpleasantness (including against me) I wish his memory no malice in return - however on a purely personal/individual level I find it jarring when this all comes up again... Nobody's fault though.

Does anyone know if he, the EMG Colonel, died of Covid?

I don't know, twas in January 2019, we were not covied yet... I read he was already sick, and even that he was sick of something (?) chronic al his short life.

Why this morbid interest in how he died? He is dead, and no more need be said on the subject.

People talk and ask questions.
Whether you consider that good or bad, it's just human nature, and as long as it's not hurting or interfering with anybody else I don't see the harm in it.

Why do some people who clearly have no interest in a particular thread keep reading and commenting on them?
I guess for some that's human nature too.
Personally, I'd rather ignore thinks that irritate or upset me and focus on things that make me happy, because life is way to short to waste time on the trivial negative stuff.
