Speaking of old: When I first moved to Colorado in 1978, an interesting thing happened that made me feel old. I was at a record store and they were playing Led Zeppelin II. `Whole Lotta Love' was playing at the time. A boy and his girlfriend came up to the counter to buy a copy of KC and the Sunshine Band, and asked the salesman, "Who is that playing on the stereo?" The salesman (about 30 years old) proceeded to tell them that it was a `brand new group out of England called Led Zeppelin.' The salesman looked at me, winked his eye, and we both about lost it. I don't think those two ever figured it out. Russ Pierce Western Electric Denver Works

Are they any good?" This is often good for a few strange looks. Rich
