Guitar Frets: Environmental Enforcement Leaves Musicians in Fear | Postmodern Times

I think i'm more sickened by the Lacey Act revisions than any of this, though all of this is deplorable. Gosh, really? Raids on a guitar factory? They have a zero tolerance policy on protected woods, but when thousands upon thousands of guns are illegally transported across our borders, back and forth, they look the other way. Hey! maybe its an investment. Who ends up keeping the forbidden contraband? I'll bet the hoops get smaller when the guitar or piano in question is 200 years old whether it's made of now-protected woods or ivory or not.

Drew Anderson

Vat grown in an underground bunker in the early 70's. His only friends for his first 4 years were a paperclip (his first tool) and a velvet glove he lovingly called 'Bungles'. Drew was to come to Minnesota in 1982, and settled into an academic life at a University in Ely as a professor of Physics at the age of 9. He was to become the first American scientist to win a Nobel prize for his writings on his quantum theories he based entirely out of his love for gelatin and chocolate. Two years later, taking a position as an organist and music teacher at Bath, Drew was to make England his home for the next decade. During his time abroad, Drew became an English presbyterian minister and chemist following his termination as an organist for insisting on playing 'Iron Butterfly' tunes after each Sunday morning sermon. He was, we see in Chambers, "a pioneer in the chemistry of gases, and the discoverer of an oxygen substitute; aptly called 'diet oxygen'." Drew now lives in an undisclosed location with his wife, 4 children and 2 dogs. He spends his days making money as a diagnostician and his nights wondering where the day went.

It's around here somewhere... I just know it is!
