Thank you kindly, patron_anejo.

I have set the controls for the heart of the sun and amazon will deliver with my next shipment.

I just remembered my favorite Pink Floyd related story. I went to a New Wave all day outdoor concert north of Toronto in 1980. The show started at 10 in the morning and went until passed midnight. Awesome show. Elvis Costello. B 52's. The Talking Heads played their first show ever doing the Remain in Light material with the full 11 member Remain in Light band. Mind blowing.

The crowd showed up the night before and we had a fairly wild night of partying. At about 5:30 most of the crowd decided it was time to catch a few zzz's before the show. Well at 6:00, the concert promoters needed to start sound checks. The cranked the sound system right up and blasted Time from DSotM.

DING. RING. BONG. RING. BONG. DINGLE. TICK. TOCK. DING.

50,000 people jumped up all at once looking like an army of Orcs. Realizing that we were helpless in the face of Pink Floyd we all reached down, cracked a cold one and started to dance. A very strage sight to be sure.
