Some of us do. We have to shove some of the others out of the way first
though. ;-)

Nice try, but desperate as you may be, living in England
doesn't make you English.

English is a language.

There was a time when it might have been said that you
should try to construct your post in such a way that it
relates to valve audio as a recreational pursuit. I think
that's how the group got it's name...presumably an American
made it up because it's not English. Is that what prompted
your question?

Well, almost anyone can post to this group.
Most may also post to this group - what do your parents have to
suggest about that?
As you will note there are more than a few who should not post to this
or any other group with an actual claimed purpose.
No, this group has nothing to do with global climate change various
hijackers, pretentious South African remittance men and Americans with
delusions of royalty notwithstanding.
Occasionally the care-and-feeding of tube equipment is discussed along
with other aspects of tubecraft, but don't hold your breath in that
regard.

Well said, Peter.

suspected!)

Sure you can. Welcome, from the second-longest member (John Byrns is
