Just popped on the tube to watch local news and there he was.JJ backing up James Taylor at some DNC outdoor shindig.The very first thing that caught my eye was the bass and then everything else.

Cool!  Here's a link to a picture:

It's cool that Jimmy will be playing the DNC tomorrow.  I wonder if any other Alembics will be showing up?
 
I've only visited North Carolina once, to the Research Triangle on a business trip.  For somebody who grew up in Iowa and spent college years until now in California, my first impression from the plane was wow, that is a lot of trees.  We were visiting a Swedish company that had a division there, so we had the strange experience of talking to a lot of people with Swedish+Southern accents.

Dave,
Yep there sure are a lot of trees around here. You  wouldn't have been at Ericsson by any chance? I passed it for years before I retired.

+1 on the trees. We have lots of trees on our property in California, but back East EVERYTHING gets crowded, including the trees!
 
For our West Texas brethren, trees are large, tall  plants that provide shade and wood.
