Re: [ARSCLIST] Other memorable record stores
2 questions: Rock 78s??? Never heard of them... When I was a kid I had
a 10" 78 of Carl Perkins doing Blue Suede Shoes, but is there really a
quantity of rock on 78?
And, I wonder if you would mind using a few fewer commas, and insert
occasional spaces, to make your emails a bit more readble? We try to
use standard English around here and your content is interesting but
hard to read. Thanks! Oh, are you Roger or are you Allison? It is noice
to have signed emails sometimes. Sorry to be picky, no offense
meant....

There, isn't that a lot easier to read? Please know I'm only trying to
help! Not trying to be a schoolteacher...
