That's nice.  My surround sound speakers are JBL Pro-line components in 
custom made enclosures (I learned that when you by Speakers from an audio 
store you pay 1/3rd for the speaker components, 1/3rd for the cabinet and 
1/3rd for the label on the cabinet.  I paid 4/5ths for components, & 
1/5th for the cabinets).  Anyway the Wolfers are JBL Proline 18 inch 
wolfers with a frequency response of 30 Hz down to 2 hz.  

So far I have not found a reason to consider adding a sub wolfer.

Golly I don't remember these guys being that old.

About the subject heading.  Back on the commune, we got our first black 
light & black light poster in 1968 if memory serves.  By the time the 
70's hit the black light was unplugged and stored and we were all gung ho 
into the back to nature movement and paying more attention to organic 
food, compost piles, herbal teas and gardening than artificial 
environments.

San Francisco had mostly lost it's appeal because the Sunday free 
concerts were largely over and the park & height areas were mostly filled 
with hard core druggies and mid western kids straight off the boat.

Sigh.  There were some good times & there were some real intense times.  
It was the best of times and it was the worst of times.  People of colour 
and women are much better off because of what happened.  A lot of very 
good people got hurt or killed to pay for it.  It was a shame though that 
the revolution lost momentum before the job was done.
