   At audio-shows here in Europe, there is often told from an event at the   
   CES in the 1970ies ... Paul Klipsch sees Mr Bose entering the big hall,   
   and he adresses him with the words "Hey Amar, are you still building   
   these weird speakers?" ... and Amar turns around and shouts into the   
   corner "Yes, of course, Paul!"   
      
   Keep on rocking,
