Thanks Google!!!

My happiest day. At 3PM synth pepes from Ohio will rock in the Rock N Roll Capital of the World. Cleveland Rocks.

I don't think they will, seeing as how Bob was never involved in designing Moog polysynths. :lol:

Does anyone know when Dave Luce's birthday is, so we can look forward to a Google Polymoog? <ducks>

I hate that dog. On topic, that Google D is really awesome. I got some wicked sounds out of it. :)

The sad part is that they probably think it is pronounced like Google, and they call it the "goog".

It would be even funnier if they had to answer a million times, "it rhymes with Rogue."

I have been jamming out with the glass armonica and the minigoog. Can't wait to get my own blown so I can run it through moogerfoogers.
