Knowing you are a southern gentleman, I did hesitate, but thought you would appreciate it as a relic of history if nothing else.

Many years ago, I went on a visit with a friend to some relations of his, a pair of very elderly spinster aunts living in the hills of Brown County, Indiana, and they still maintained and played a wind up Edison cylinder machine in their home. It was pretty near to time travel, that weekend.

Best wishes for the weekend, Sir!
