Politics! For those days you're tired of HiFi.
Howdy folks! Not much to tell here though, I"ve been on AudioKarma for a few years and saw this site go up, thought I'd give it a try. I've been a Republican for most of my life, but have gone over to the dark side of Progressive-ism gradually over the last 10 years. Have now become full-blown liberal! But, as I say, a Libertarian Liberal. Odd duck, that.

Look forward to learning some things!

Funny, I started as a liberal, but Pierre Trudeau cured me of that and I went Progressive Conservative.

Whatever, welcome to the nut house.

Welcome, Speedle. I think your political evolution is shared by a bunch of us here. Dubya was enough to cure most anyone but the most ardent of their Republican tendencies.
