Yes, it's getting nice out etc. and I have decided to get the last remaining coulpe of thousand records out of my house and into storage. I started this task to discover that all the ones on the bottom row of shelving have been destroyed by the heater! Now I knew the heater was there and I have never ever turned it on, not once since I have lived here in 8 years. I have a nice space heater I use for the room. With that being said I can pretty much point the finger at my EX who probably turned the heater on when I wasn't home or out of town. That's the only explanation. At least they weren't records that were super duper uber rare or meant a whole lot to me. There was still some heatery in there (no pun intended) that was destroyed. Oh well, can't cry over spilt milk, just get another bottle! 90% of my reggae collection was damaged and going into the trash today!

    The owner (Bob?) will keep the lot in his "stash room" or try to sell the covers for $30. Watch.

    Hilarious K. That's exactly what I was thinking. Peetz is an animal. One time, he beat up a bum who stole his Trinity LP... True Story.

    Perhaps the heater helped the 45's sound better than they ever did.
