	[O'Neal, Kevin W.]  Article in Acoustic Guitar World again quotes
Pete as placing blame directly on studio head phones.  He states that after
hours and hours of demo work, it's very easy to lose track of the volume.
He also mentions that his hearing problems are "not bad at all, really",
"compared to John who has to use two high powered hearing aids to order a
tunafish sandwich" (or something to that effect ;-).  He also states that he
believes his fans really do care about his hearing and would probably ask
him to "turn it down" if he played too loudly.  He used to think we didn't
give a "fuck", but now realizes and appreciates our care and concern.

	[O'Neal, Kevin W.]  Vitriolic - "virulence of felling or of speech".
Virulence - "extreme bitterness or malignity of temper".
	 Well put Jeff .  Good to see this attitude becoming infectious.
What ever became of Rodney anyway? ;-)

	[O'Neal, Kevin W.]  I can't  look at any band as "serious" until
*all* members have gone through puberty.
