Howdy,

He was mentioned here a few years back . . . maybe longer . . . it's 
been a while.

I remember following up a link on a post to watch one of his vid clips 
once.

Here is at least a couple of mentions I was able to google up on LD:

<http://www.loopersdelight.com/LDarchive/200605/msg00320.html>

<http://www.loopersdelight.com/LDarchive/200604/msg00648.html>

But, it's true, he was never a major topic of discussion (for whatever 
reason).

For those of us who've been here a long time it's easy to forget every 
passing mention.

Don't get discouraged, some of my own main (but admittedly terribly 
obscure) influences are never (or seldom) mentioned here either.

If I wanted to read about them I'd go to their websites (if they have 
'em).

People here are into different stuff and came to looping by a variety 
of routes.

We can all still learn from one another.

Cheers,

Ted
