Whatever happened to Enid?

lots of rumors about enid, it seems. i heard she made her way to trinidad, colo for some sex change surgery and is now writing under the name "m. fremer." but then, plato's sources may be no less reliable.... (don'tcha wonder sometimes how "america's most wanted" ever leads to anyone's arrest?) -kelly

Detlof, the last conversation I had with her on the phone, was in the early 90s, when as Plato mentioned,she abandoned and sold off everything. I purchased her select Amperex BB tubes from her SP-6B preamp. We got into a conversation about Zip cord, and dielectric spaceing between + & - conductors, and when I told her that I had positive results with this unidentified 12 gauge done in a Helix twist, she said I was describing the opposite of what she thought was good zip design. She pretty much got too into the subject to the point ,I think, of needing to quit alltogether. As Plato points out, she lost credibility with many claims, but she showed the world that much of it WAS valid. We could use her back for sure......Frank

Bringing things up like this sometimes helps to figure out where someone is coming from and better understand their train of thought. Good to see that we're all looking at things from the same perspective. Even as "nuts" or "goofy" as we get, Enid DID go just a bit overboard on a few occasions. Then again and as was mentioned, i DO think that she and Moncrieff REALLY did help to motivate a lot of those in the industry to improve circuit designs and construction practices. Sean

Tasteful but not much to get excited about. Air pudding. I hear some of the John Barleycorn sound but it's mostly the same stuff he's been doing for the last 25 years. Arc of a Diver was the last really good album made.
