@Kenny @sbayne - Well, I never said I was patient, yet that starts with patience toward myself, first. I have to keep moving forward, all of the time.
Sbayne mentioned societal changes. I’ve embraced those changes. We now live in a world of instant gratification. That’s just the way it is. Really, it puts extra pressure on those people, like Eric, who are trying to bring new things into world. As much as I love the concept of a mom ’n’ pop business, it’s mostly non-viable these days to have such dreams. One has to innovate or get out of the way. Perhaps that’s where Tekton is at the moment. Remember, Tekton started almost 10-years ago. That’s dog years in the audiophile/hi-fi world. Yet, here they are, still making speakers. The word got out; the pressure got juiced.
So, I ask myself, why didn’t I cancel my order? I suppose it’s because I was raised in the days where we didn’t know who was on the other end of the telephone line until we picked it up. When I was a kid, I played outside all day until the street lights came on. When it was time for supper I ate what was prepared, and if I didn’t like it, I would go without. With my first car, I could raise the hood and fix anything I needed.
A "Message board" was made of cork, and a person would use thumbtacks to pin little slips of paper to it.
I don’t necessarily wish for those days back. Still, I wear them like a shadow. They have a way of sticking around, though they are long dead.
I wish that Tekton will stick around.
