Hi Bobby.  I second this heartily!  I've enjoyed many email exchanges
with Mr. Gray, and I am impressed with what he knows, and with what

When I sort through my roll collection (presently boxed for storage),
I know that I have many duplicates that he'll most likely get.  I try
to encourage all aspects of mechanical music, particularly encouraging 
young people in the hobby!
