    Are you sure she didn't say "needle"?

    no, that's why it was funny - the real old timers must have referred to the
    stylus as 'nails' going back to the very early days

    I'm not old and I still call them "records."

    Yeah, but you were probably a pre-teen if you were playing 45s.

    I still play 45's. New ones even. Some stuff is just better that way.

    I'm 37. We had 45s in the '70s - it wasn't quite the Dark Ages.

    I understand they were a great improvement over the wax cylinders, eh?

    Oh, aye. I'm fond of that new horseless carriage as well.

    I think you're too old if you call it a "record".

    [censored], the term is still widely used today, by people of all ages.

    For example, a simple search with the keywords "a new record" and
    "album" recieved 138,000 hits in Google.

    LOL

    I can just see a small tube amp for an ipod. That would be funny. You would
    need a car battery to power it. Not very portable.

    I saw a small tube amp for car stereos. It used tiny little tubes and
    produced lots of heat. Not very practical and expensive as well.

    I've been intrigued by the discussions on single end triode amps coupled
    with high efficiency full range drivers in horn enclosures. Pretty pricey
    stuff, but the latent Heathkit geek in me might try to put something
    together sometime.

    I wonder why a 37 year old finds it necessary at that stage in life,
    to be reading for an English degree? As a discipline it is something
    that any educated person already possesses, and as a vocational
    qualification it's quite useless!!

    However, it certainly makes her feel superior to "x-no-archive:yes"

    "x-no-archive:yes" Wendy is going through a bad patch, which is
    something of a shame. I used to be quite fond of her, and quite
    protective too, but she got all stroppy and told me to bugger off, so
    I did.

    She then got herself into all sorts of problems by attempting to be
    'one of the boys', and got her come-uppance from the very nasty
    anonymous Lucas Buck!!

    She is now very nervous and has reverted to [censored]-licking in order to
    curry favour (not curry flavour, unless they've been on the Vindaloo)
    with "the hyenas"!!

    She is very silly!!

    Does this newsgroup have a website that everyone posts their pics/profiles?
